SACRAMENTO Billings by lobbying firm Axiom Advisors rose by more than 25% last quarter, following an infamous birthday dinner held by partner Jason Kinney at Napa Valley’s French Laundry restaurant. Gov. Gavin Newsom attended the November event in violation of his own social distancing rules in effect at the time, helping to spur the recall drive currently underway against him.
The Sacramento-based consultancy logged revenues of $2,008,046 between January and March, according to lobbying reports filed with the state, an increase of $406,916 from the fourth quarter of 2020 and its second-best reporting period since the firm was formed two and a half years ago.
