American Gaming Association CEO Bill Miller and Senior Vice President of Government Relations Chris Cylke were included on The Hill’s annual list of Top Lobbyists in Washington D.C. The trade organization represents the gaming industry’s interests on Capitol Hill.
Miller took over as the AGA’s CEO in January, bringing the organization more than three decades of experience on Capitol Hill and representing business interests in Washington. Cylke joined the AGA in 2017. He leads AGA’s efforts to advocate for the gaming industry’s public policy objectives.

The Hill said 2019 was a frenetic year for K Street, with a number of high-profile fights on legislative and regulatory issues, even as Washington was riveted by impeachment drama and a contentious 2020 presidential election took shape.

In a busy and testing year for the influence world, these are the people who wielded their clout and knowledge most effectively on behalf of their clients.
Not all of those honored on this list are formally registered as lobbyists. The list highlights the broad range of talents needed to succeed in the influence industry. But the people below are all at the top of their game — and the ones the nation’s biggest companies, labor unions and associations turn to when they want their voices heard in the nation’s capital.
The ranks of Washington’s policy experts and influencers run deep, but these are the players who stand out for delivering results for their clients in the halls of Congress and the administration.
