Nippon Steel taps Republican lobby firepower for U.S. Steel deal
WASHINGTON -- Nippon Steel has added another lobbying firm to its roster, as the Japanese company seeks to pave the way for the acquisition of U.S. Steel.
The U.S. Senate's lobbying disclosure website shows that strategic communications firm Vox Global has joined the Nippon Steel team as a subcontractor to Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, which Nippon Steel retained in December.
