He was appointed as a consultant, Technical Review Staff, Department of the Interior in May 1961, and served until December 1963.He was the unsuccessful candidate for Democratic nomination as United States Senator in 1962, 1964, and 1970.

He was their party's nominee for United States Senator after failing to obtain the Democratic nomination that year, receiving 0.91% of the vote.His son Karl Meyer is a noted radical pacifist.".
