Peloton begins Washington lobbying efforts with focus on manufacturing and social justice

As Peloton continues to grow as a company, it is stepping up its lobbying efforts in Washington, DC.

According to filings, Peloton’s in-house lobbyist will engage with Washington on “‘Made in America’ manufacturing investment” and “legislation in support of social justice and human equality issues.” Another focus of the efforts will be “policymaking and government programming to support health and wellness of Americans, in particular during COVID-19 recovery.”

Many publically traded companies employ lobbyists on their behalf to make sure members of congress are exposed to information important to the company. Peloton is greatly affected by tariffs, taxes, and health policy, so it’s not surprising they are stepping up their efforts.
