The firm was acquired by [[Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide]] for $60 million in 2005, and changed its name to Ogilvy Government Relations in early 2007. [http://sev.prnewswire.com/advertising/20070215/DCTH00315022007-1.html] According to ''O'Dwyer's PR Daily'', the firm decided "to switch its name as the Democrats take control of Congress," adding that "the Republican PR lobbying firm" had "recently made inroads with Democrats as evidence by the December hire of Moses Mercado (former deputy executive director of the Democratic National Committee) and ex-Louisiana Congressman Chris John."
