Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is launching a public affairs firm with several of his political allies following his departure from Congress.

Watchtower Strategy will be a “full-service public affairs firm” that specializes in strategy, advocacy and strategic communications, the group said in a release Tuesday.

McCarthy will be joined at the firm by former White House communications aide Cliff Sims, Arthur Schwartz, an ally of Vice President Vance’s, and GOP allies Jeff Miller, Dan Conston and Brian O. Walsh.

“The launch of Watchtower Strategy comes at a pivotal and promising moment for our country,” McCarthy said in a statement. “Navigating this moment can be both and opportunity and a challenge.”

“The Watchtower team is trust, tested, and built for success,” he continued.

McCarthy left Congress in late 2023 after being ousted from his speaker position by far-right conservatives. He’s been at odds with the conservatives in his party and remained active in the media since his departure from the House.

He will serve as the firm’s chairman, the group said.

Conston, the group’s CEO, said in the release that they are in a position to provide “sound counsel” and engage in some of Washington’s biggest fights.

The group argued their firm is able to offer CEOS and executives their unique experience over the upcoming policy and reform debates.

“With decades of experience at the highest levels of politics and government, Watchtower Strategy’s leadership knows how to get things done,” they wrote. “The firm is built to help clients navigate Washington’s toughest challenges—whether shaping policy outcomes, managing high-stakes crises, or guiding top executives through complex decisions.”

The firm won’t be engaged in lobbying, according to Punchbowl News.
