First: I was shocked to see that Menlo Park is considering hiring Mercury Public Affairs for our government/legislative advocacy work. Are you aware that Mercury Public Affairs has been called in the Mueller Investigation? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/18/us/politics/mueller-russia-investigation.html?_r=0 I am strongly opposed to this contract. Second: What is our policy or practice regarding considering a diverse pool of candidates when we go to bid? Did the committee ensure that the firms under consideration included firms with significant representation of women and/or people of color in leadership? -Karen Grove Received on Fri Nov 03 2017 - 13:34:26 PDT
