WASHINGTON — Actor and Uvalde native Matthew McConaughey is continuing his push for federal gun law changes, now hiring a team of D.C. lobbyists to represent him on Capitol Hill.
The award-winning actor has been a vocal figure both online and on the Hill for “responsible gun ownership” following the Uvalde school massacre that left 19 children and two teachers dead.
McConaughey’s Texas company, Barefoot Money Inc., hired D.C. lobbying firm Avisa Partners US, Inc. to lobby for issues “related to responsible gun ownership,” according to the registration form filed Wednesday.
