With more than five years of experience on the Hill, Zach Weber is returning to his alma mater, the University of Michigan, as federal relations director.
Weber was most recently deputy director of federal affairs to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D). Prior to joining Whitmer's office, Weber was legislative director to former Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-Mich.).
Following the U.S. House's institution of a ban on staffers' use of Microsoft Copilot, as reported by Axios, various congressional staffers were invited to Microsoft's Spring Congressional Staff Delegation Trip, which included a demonstration of Copilot.
Members of Democratic and Republican congressional offices were invited by Microsoft Corp. to this privately financed trip from April 24-26. A notable invitee was Steve Dwyer, senior director of innovation for the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer, according to a disclosed invitee list. A representative for the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer informed LegiStorm that Dwyer did not attend this event.
