Lobbyist Insight

Texas · 2005 – 2013

Harvey Hilderbran

Identified in the Open States roster as Republican, House, district 53 · roster lists service 2009 to 2014. Filings here begin earlier, so that term list is incomplete rather than a mismatch.

Named as receiving meals, gifts, travel or entertainment in 39 lobbying expenditure filings, from 23 different organisations or lobbyists.

$1,121 across the 10 items that carry an exact figure. The other 29 are filed as a bracket rather than an amount, so the real total is higher and cannot be calculated from what the state publishes.

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.
