BILL PAXON WILL RETIRE FROM AKIN GUMP: Former Rep. Bill Paxon (R-N.Y.), a former NRCC chairman who joined Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld in 1999 after leaving office, will retire at the end of the year, the firm announced today. “I am deeply indebted to everyone at the firm, particularly my dear friend, the late Bob Strauss,” Paxon said in a statement. “Bob was a giant of a man who combined the very best of being a wise mentor and a kind grandfather figure, dispensing advice on both servicing clients and also raising children to a fledgling dad every day.”
— Paxon’s clients at the firm include Cox Enterprises, Delaware North, Florida Citrus Mutual, Fluor Corporation, Liberty Mutual, PMI Global Services and Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, according to disclosure filings.
