Eric Wang is a renowned and respected authority on political law. His practice is notable for its breadth and depth. Eric’s professional experience includes serving as counsel to a commissioner at the Federal Election Commission, serving as in-house counsel to Americans for Prosperity, and practicing political law at one of D.C.’s largest law firms. These varied interactions with the law—as a regulator, client, adviser, and advocate—inform Eric’s practical approach to helping clients achieve their goals while navigating a thicket of complex laws.

Eric’s mastery of campaign finance laws is not limited to the federal level: he also has advised clients on the campaign finance laws in all 50 states and in many municipalities. In addition, he has guided clients through federal, state, and local lobbying, government ethics, and “pay-to-play” laws.

Eric's representative matters include:

  • Advising congressional candidates on campaign finance laws, ballot qualification, and filing requirements

  • Advising political nonprofit groups on campaign finance, lobbying, and tax law implications of their issue advocacy, independent expenditure, and get-out-the-vote campaigns

  • Advising federal and state super PACs on fundraising, candidate interactions, and ad reviews

  • Advising congressional leadership PACs on advancing sponsor’s policy and political objectives

  • Representing Fortune 50 companies in seeking FEC advisory opinion requests and responding to enforcement complaints.

Eric is frequently published on political law issues in USA Today, Roll Call, The Hill, Politico, The Washington Times, and the Washington Examiner. Since 2013, Eric has been a pro bono Senior Fellow at the Institute for Free Speech, where he helps advocate for reducing the regulatory burden on clients exercising their First Amendment rights.
