Quote:
Molinari joins Google from Susan Molinari Strategies, a government affairs consulting firm. When Molinari represented Staten Island in Congress from 1990 to 1997, she was elected to the House GOP majority leadership, making her the highest ranking Republican woman in Congress.
Former Sen. John Sununu, who overlapped with Molinari in the House, said in a phone interview that she is ?quick and sharp? and will be a big asset to Google.
?The Google office in Washington has not had someone with the visibility of a former member of Congress, and with her understanding of the complexities of the legislative process,? Sununu said, ?Google is receiving a higher level of scrutiny. ... When you?re such a large and growing company, you have to have a strong, visible, capable leader in Washington.?
