Lobbyist Insight

Texas · 2005 – 2023

Royce West

Identified in the Open States roster as Democratic, Senate, district 23 · roster lists service 1993 to present.

Named as receiving meals, gifts, travel or entertainment in 63 lobbying expenditure filings, from 49 different organisations or lobbyists.

$2,673 across the 20 items that carry an exact figure. The other 43 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.
