Lobbyist Insight

Texas · 2011 – 2024

John Kuempel

Identified in the Open States roster as Republican, House, district 44 · roster lists service 2010 to 2025.

Named as receiving meals, gifts, travel or entertainment in 113 lobbying expenditure filings, from 26 different organisations or lobbyists.

$520 across the 6 items that carry an exact figure. The other 107 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.
