“Carrie is the strongest lobbyist I’ve ever worked with. She understands the issue quickly, doesn’t need further explanation, and is an incredibly effective motivator to get elected officials to take meaningful action. Any work you need done in Texas, she should be your first call.”
“Mike Toomey & Associates were beyond effective as partners in our organization’s mission. Our goal was to guarantee a personal finance course for every high school student in Texas, and they made it happen. Leading up to and during the 89th Legislative Session when the historic House Bill 27 passed, the team faced a steady barrage of headwinds, but they never shied away from the challenge. Better yet, they turned the headwinds into advantages. Because of their leadership, every student in Texas now has a brighter financial future.”
“Mike Toomey has been a strong partner for TLR for 24 years. No one in Austin has a better understanding of the Legislature, and Mike’s broad and well-respected experience has been an important asset in our legislative efforts.”
“Carrie Simmons has delivered NHA its most significant advocacy win. Last week, we signed a contract with the Texas State Board of Pharmacy and we have the great lobbying efforts of Carrie to thank for that. We would recommend her service to any non-competitor.”
“Mike Toomey was brought on to lead the High Speed Rail team during the 85th Legislative Session. Mike and his team prepared for every potential threat and showed strategic insight working with people on all sides of the issue. Mike and his team’s commitment to success was obvious and Texas Central is grateful for their hard work that will preserve the future for this transformational transportation option in Texas.”
