Christina Fallin, the 22-year-old daughter of 5th District Congress- woman and Republican candidate for governor Mary Fallin, has registered as a State Capitol lobbyist.
The Oklahoma Ethics Commission's records reflect that Christina Fallin has joined the lobbying firm of Gary Huddleston. (She's shown here being introduced by her mother at a function.)
Among the firm's clients are (L100321 - Fallin, Christina M - Huddleston Investments, Inc): 3-Star Centers of Oklahoma [Child Care), American Academy of Ophthalmology, Coalition for Oklahoma Teeth Floaters, Folds of Honor Foundation, Huddleston Investments, Inc., IESI Corporation, Oklahoma Bondsman Association, Oklahoma Consumer Capital Association, Oklahoma Financial Services Association, Oklahoma HBPA Thoroughbred Racing Association of Oklahoma, Outdoor Advertising Association of Oklahoma, Thomson/West Group, VISA.
In a letter introducing Christina Fallin as his new associate, Huddleston writes that she's had experience in Washington working for a lobbying firm while her mother was in Congress.
Asked to comment on her daughter's lobbyist registration, Fallin said, "I'm very proud my daughter has taken an interest in public policy and is actively advocating for several groups and industries here in Oklahoma. I've always encouraged my kids to get involved and to try to make a difference here in the state, and Christina is doing just that."
