Regarding Miller, Capitol Inside wrote:

“Robert Miller — one of the Austin lobby’s most influential members in the era of Republican rule — has emerged for the first time in the number one spot on the list of hired gun contract lobbyists in the Lone Star State. . . A former Senate aide who’s a lawyer, Miller built a lobby practice with an emphasis of cultivating strong relations with lawmakers from both parties and the key players on both sides of the rotunda.”
