who we are

A New York Firm for New York Fights

Hudson & Fifth Strategies is a full-service political consulting and government affairs firm based in New York City. We help candidates win elections, and we help nonprofits, labor unions and businesses win on policy at City Hall and in Albany.

Our strategists have worked on campaigns at every level, inside legislative offices and city agencies, in newsrooms and in community organizing. That mix means we understand both sides of the table: how campaigns are won and how decisions are actually made in government.

Because strategy, government relations, communications, mail, digital and field all sit under one roof, our clients get one plan and one team that is accountable for the result.

what we believe

The Values Behind Our Work

Value 01

Integrity

We follow the rules, keep our word and give clients honest advice, even when it is not what they want to hear.

Value 02

Community First

Policies and campaigns should make neighborhoods stronger. We work for people who share that goal.

Value 03

Results

Every plan has clear goals, and we measure our work against them every week.

Value 04

Representation

New York is diverse. Our teams, research and materials reflect the communities we serve.

how we are different

One Team, One Plan

Many campaigns hire a pollster, a mail firm, a digital agency, a lobbyist and a press shop, and then spend their time keeping them in sync. We bring those skills together.

Local knowledge

We know the districts, the leaders and the issues across all five boroughs.

Inside experience

Our team has worked in campaigns, legislative offices and agencies.

Everything in-house

Strategy, lobbying, press, mail, digital and field from one team.

Clear reporting

A weekly update with what we did, what worked and what is next.
