Success Stories
Real challenges, strategic approaches, and tangible outcomes from our government relations work.
Dallas Regional Mobility Coalition
Challenge
Five counties, 27 municipal members, and competing transportation priorities with limited state funding. The Dallas Regional Mobility Coalition (DRMC) needed to advance critical mobility projects in Dallas, Denton, Collin, Rockwall, and Ellis counties.
Our Approach
As Executive Director, Drew Campbell built a strategic framework connecting local governments with state legislators 14 months before session. We organized site visits to show lawmakers congested corridors firsthand and developed county-specific economic impact data.
Outcome
Secured $412M in new transportation funding and accelerated three major corridor projects by bypassing traditional TxDOT sequencing.
"Drew's strategic approach and deep relationships with key legislators helped us secure critical funding that will benefit our region for decades."

North Texas Commission Water Infrastructure
Challenge
The North Texas Commission, representing businesses, cities, counties, chambers of commerce, economic development entities and higher education institutions, faced fragmented advocacy efforts across the region. Water infrastructure challenges were becoming critical as population surged.
Our Approach
Drawing on our role as longstanding lobbying firm for the North Texas Commission, we convened a pre-session coalition of water authorities and municipal leaders, connected directly with House and Senate Natural Resources committee staff, prepared data-driven briefs showing immediate economic impact of water infrastructure, and leveraged Byron's expertise with the Texas Association of Water Companies to build industry support.
Outcome
Not only did water infrastructure remain funded despite budget cuts in other areas, but a 12% increase in water development funding was secured with bipartisan support.
"The Capitol Insights team's ability to build consensus among diverse stakeholders was instrumental in securing increased funding despite a challenging budget year."

New Car Dealers Association Advocacy
Challenge
Proposed legislation threatened to disrupt the franchise model for auto dealers across Texas, potentially impacting thousands of jobs and local tax revenue in communities statewide.
Our Approach
Drew Campbell, leveraging his 25-year tenure as CEO of the New Car Dealers Association, coordinated testimony from dealers across diverse districts and prepared economic impact data showing the community investment of local dealerships.
Outcome
Successfully preserved the franchise model while incorporating reasonable modernizations that benefited both dealers and consumers.
"Their understanding of both the legislative process and the auto industry's unique challenges made all the difference in preserving our business model."
