AGA CEO Miller and SVP Cylke Named to The Hill “Top Lobbyist” List

Execs rewarded for their efforts in Washington.

This morning, The Hill named AGA President and CEO Bill Miller and Senior Vice President, Government Relations Chris Cylke to their annual Top Lobbyist list. The list highlights, “the people who stand out for delivering results for their clients in the halls of Congress and in the administration.”

This recognition comes at the end of the gaming industry’s most challenging year, where historic wins in Washington played an essential role in our recovery. Achievements include:

• Ensured gaming’s historic inclusion in the CARES Act which provided tax relief; opened access to critical capital; provided direct economic support for millions of American workers and their families; and offered vital stabilization funding for tribal governments.
• Compelled the Small Business Administration to overturn discriminatory guidelines for the Paycheck Protection Program, allowing size-eligible small gaming entities to participate in this vital lifeline.
• Grew the Congressional Gaming Caucus, led by Reps. Dina Titus (NV-01) and Guy Reschenthaler (PA-14), to 35 bipartisan members from 18 states, and continued to build champions in Congress and the administration.
• Protected sports betting from federal intervention, including during AGA’s testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee in July.

The AGA—with Miller and Cylke’s leadership—continues to fight for additional COVID relief from Congress and advance priorities to accelerate gaming’s recovery.
