Lobbyist Insight

Ohio · Jan-Apr15 – Sep-Dec22

Emilia Strong Sykes

Identified in the Open States roster as Democratic, House, district 34.

Named as receiving meals, gifts, travel or entertainment in 25 lobbying expenditure filings, from 17 different organisations or lobbyists.

Disclosed value of the items naming them: $4,045.

What this is and is not. These are items that lobbyists and their employers reported spending, naming this person as a recipient. The filings themselves never say whether a named person is a legislator, a member of staff, a family member or a guest at the same event — Texas codes every one of them "INDIVIDUAL" — so any role shown above comes from matching the name against a published roster, and its absence means only that no match was found. Nothing here is a payment to them.
