Former US Congressman Frank Guinta, Senior Vice President at ML Strategies in Washington, DC, advises clients on federal policy and legislative strategy, drawing on a distinguished career in public service and private sector leadership. He helps organizations navigate Congress and federal agencies to advance policy priorities and respond to regulatory challenges. 

With extensive experience in legislative affairs, municipal leadership, and constituent advocacy, Frank brings a well-rounded perspective to clients pursuing federal engagement. 

Frank represented New Hampshire’s 1st congressional district in the US House of Representatives for two nonconsecutive terms, from 2011 to 2013 and from 2015 to 2017. During his tenure, he served on the House Financial Services, Budget, Oversight and Government Reform, and Transportation and Infrastructure Committees, and co-founded the Bipartisan Task Force to Combat the Heroin Epidemic, contributing to key provisions in the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA). Before serving in Congress, Frank was elected mayor of Manchester, New Hampshire--becoming the city’s youngest mayor in over a century--and held prior roles in state and local government, including the New Hampshire House of Representatives and Manchester’s Board of Aldermen. 

Earlier in his career, Frank was a senior policy advisor to US Congressman Jeb Bradley and worked in the insurance industry, where he ran his own consulting firm. He currently serves on the National Advisory Board of the Addiction Policy Forum.
