Washington, D.C. – The International Code Council hires KP Public Affairs, a leading advocacy, lobbying and public affairs firm based in Sacramento, California, to represent the interests of the association, its members and key stakeholders in the state.
KP is an experienced firm with decades of advocacy and communications talent on staff. The firm represents regional governments, private developers, home builders, utilities, construction companies and many others.
