HillCo Partners has been recognized in the 2017 Texas Lobby Power Rankings as the #1 lobby team in Texas. Founding partner Bill Miller was honored as a “Lobby Hall of Fame 2017 inductee” joining founding partner Buddy Jones who was an original member in 2005. Jones was also ranked again for the fourth consecutive time at the top of the “Hired Guns” list.
Jones and Miller were recognized for the way they “revolutionized the lobby here by bringing the team concept into fashion.” The HillCo Partners lobby team also received several accolades in the 2017 rankings including numerous spots on the top 100 hired guns ranking and as Texas Lobby Rising Stars, among others.
Additionally, the February 2017 Texas Monthly article Flush with Power observes Bill Miller as “a fixer: someone who generally makes the lives of public officials easier” who “remains a central figure in Texas politics—so central, in fact, that it’s not easy to narrow down just what he’s up to. He seemingly has a hand in just about everything.”
