Taylor Foy is the Acting Director of the Office of Public Affairs at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. In this role, he oversees the CFTC’s public relations and communications matters as well as its customer education initiatives.
Mr. Foy joined the CFTC in 2024 as Senior Advisor to then-Commissioner Pham, focusing on public relations and external communications. Prior to joining the CFTC, Mr. Foy spent nearly 14 years on Capitol Hill, where he served as the Communications Director for the influential Senate Judiciary, Senate Finance, and Senate Budget Committees. In these roles, he developed public messaging and communications strategies on a wide array of issues, including tax and trade policy, government spending and accountability, and federal law enforcement matters. He worked directly on policies to improve transparency in commodity markets and buttress the CFTC’s successful whistleblower program.
Mr. Foy also led a team of communicators for several senior U.S. Senators and a member of Congress – all of whom were members of committees with direct oversight of the CFTC.
