Longtime Washington business reporter Paul Merrion has retired from MLEx.
His last day was Friday. He joined MLex in 2017.
Merrion was reporter and co-founder of MLex US Tax Watch, an online Lexis Nexis publication that covers tax administration.
He previously was Washington bureau chief at Crain’s Chicago Business from 1978 from day one to 2015, when it closed the bureau.
Merrion also covered data privacy and cybersecurity for CQ Roll Call for about a year and a half before he joined MLex in July 2017 as senior White House reporter.
He switched to the tax beat in February 2018. He started at Crain in Chicago in 1974, right out of college, for Pensions & Investments and Business Insurance.
A native of Chicago, Merrion graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana with an English major and a minor in mathematics, and he is active in the National Press Club.
