McDonald Public Relations

McDonald Public Relations is a Texas-based public relations firm.

"We specialize in helping clients target and mobilize constituencies to influence opinion leaders and elected officials ... We apply techniques honed in politics and campaigning - research, earned media events, paid media, grassroots outreach and coalition development - to help our clients achieve their goals and move public opinion," it states on its website. 

The firm advertises 'grassroots outreach' as one of its specialty areas. "We work face-to-face setting up field operations, identifying and activating supporters and building bridges to non-traditional allies to broaden our clients' messages and to expand the scope of campaigns," it states on its website. 

Clients
McDonald Public Relations does not provide a detailed client listing on its website but states that "our clients include Fortune 400 companies, trade groups, public policy associations, and Texas-based firms seeking communications assistance and strategic counsel." 

However, one of the firm's clients is TXU which it is helping with its front group, Texans for Affordable and Reliable Power.
