Why It Matters
Quantum Corridor LLC has retained Greenberg Traurig LLP to lobby on defense issues, according to a new lobbying registration filed June 10, 2026.
This is Quantum Corridor's debut on the federal lobbying stage and is entering the market at a time of significant congressional activity on quantum technology and national defense. Greenberg Traurig brings a team with direct experience on both fronts.
By the Numbers
The registration lists no dollar amount for the engagement. Two lobbyists are assigned to the account:
- Daniel Sennott, Shareholder and Co-Chair of Greenberg Traurig's National Security Group, previously served on the House Armed Services Committee across the 114th, 115th, and 116th Congresses.
- Misha Lehrer, Senior Director at the firm, previously worked for Sen. Christopher Murphy (D-CT).
Broader Context
The registration lists Defense as the sole issue area.
Quantum Corridor's registration comes as Congress is actively legislating at the intersection of quantum technology and national security. The Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee passed the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act on April 14, 2026. The House Science, Space and Technology Committee followed, passing the bill out of committee on April 29, 2026. The bill was introduced in the Senate in January by Sens. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Todd Young (R-IN) with broad bipartisan support.
On the defense authorization front, the fiscal year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) was signed into law in December 2025. The House Armed Services Committee passed the FY27 NDAA on Friday, June 5, authorizing a nearly $1.15 trillion Pentagon budget, just days before Quantum Corridor's registration was signed.
Between the Lines
Congressional engagement on quantum technology has been extensive in the past year. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) has pushed her Advancing Regional Quantum Hubs Act. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-IA) and Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) reintroduced the Quantum in Practice Act in March 2026. In August 2025, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI) introduced the National Quantum Cybersecurity Migration Strategy Act, focused on protecting federal systems from quantum-enabled threats — directly relevant to the Defense issue code under which Quantum Corridor registered. On May 29, Sen. Blackburn also participated in the Tennessee Valley Corridor National Summit on AI, quantum, and nuclear issues.
The Bottom Line
Quantum Corridor is a new entrant in federal lobbying, arriving as both quantum technology legislation and defense authorization bills move through Congress. The Greenberg Traurig team brings relevant committee and member experience.
