Lobbying/Advocacy

Premier Legislative Consulting (PLC Texas) can effectively communicate to legislators and agency staff the reasoning and justification for any changes to state laws or the state budget. We make use of our comprehensive knowledge of the legislative process, public policy development, and our extensive network of contacts inside and outside of Texas state government to help ensure that those policies are implemented. Additionally, we can defend our client’s interests when new policies are being researched and developed.

Sunset Review Navigation

PLC Texas can help navigate the state’s Sunset Review Process. The Texas Sunset Commission (a standing joint committee of the legislature) makes recommendations on whether or not to continue the functions of state agencies, and if so, how to improve their operations. These reviews, performed by a cadre of state-employed public policy professionals, can have major long-lasting effects on regulated professions and activities. We can draw on our experience of working both inside and outside the Sunset Review Process to help ensure positive impacts for our clients.
