Rick Lazio is Executive Vice President of Global Government Affairs and Public Policy of JP Morgan Chase. Mr. Lazio is a member of the Executive Committee. After representing New York's 2nd district in Congress for eight years, Lazio served as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Financial Services Forum for the past three years. The Forum was formed in early 2000 by the chief executive officers from twenty of the largest and most diversified financial services institutions in the United States. The Forum's purpose is to promote an open and competitive financial services marketplace, with the aims of ensuring the availability of quality financial products and services, and the stability of the U.S. and global financial systems. Lazio served as an Assistant District Attorney in Suffolk County for five years before being elected to the Suffolk County (New York) Legislature in 1989. He ran for Congress in 1992, defeating an 18-year incumbent. He became Deputy Majority Whip in 1995 and was later named Assistant Majority Leader. As a moderate and a member of the House leadership, Lazio was able to bring people of different ideologies together on a wide variety of issues including financial services, the environment, criminal justice and health care. Mr. Lazio successfully worked to protect valuable federal housing programs for the poor, disabled and elderly during his tenure. Over the last four years of his term in Congress, Mr. Lazio was the only member to serve on both the Commerce and Banking committees, and in that capacity was instrumental in passing the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. As chairman of the House Banking Committee's Subcommittee on Housing, Mr. Lazio authored and negotiated legislation enacting the most sweeping reform of America's public housing in more than 60 years and expanding homeownership for low-income Americans. Mr. Lazio serves a corporate board as Chairman of the Audit Committee for TB Woods Corporation. He also serves on the Boards of World Rehabilitation Fund and Audubon New York. He also is a member of the Advisory Committee of The Ad Council. A graduate of Vassar College and American University Law School, Mr. Lazio, 47, lives with his wife Patricia and his daughters, Molly and Kelsey, in Brightwaters, New York.
