WASHINGTON — Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) today announced the addition of new Government Relations Manager Lauren Limke who joins CRES from the majority staff of the U.S. House Natural Resources Committee.
“We are kicking off the new year with the expansion of our government relations team – an exciting development building on our organization’s momentum in 2023,” said CRES Vice President of Government Relations Shawn Affolter. “Having worked on legislative proposals that address American energy production, federal lands usage, and mineral mining on Capitol Hill, Lauren brings critical knowledge and hands-on expertise to CRES that will help further our mission to advance policies to promote reliable, affordable and clean American-made energy.”
“Hailing originally from North Dakota, I know firsthand the importance of embracing an all-of-the-above energy policy approach,” said Limke. “I am thrilled to join the CRES team and am eager to get to work engaging lawmakers and their staff on commonsense energy policies that strengthen our grid and economy.”
Prior to CRES and her role as a legislative assistance for the House Committee on Natural Resources, she served as a legislative correspondent for U.S. Senator John Hoeven (R-N.D.). In addition to her work on the Hill, she has been involved with several campaigns. She was born and raised in Fargo, North Dakota, and graduated from North Dakota State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Political Science.
