Since you mentioned STEVE SCALISE....how about his collusion with DIRTY ENERGY? BOUGHT & PAID FOR!
(This is why OPEN SECRETS & COMMON DREAMS is important & needs support) U.S. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise received a $40,000 campaign donation from the political action committee of a Big Oil CEO who allegedly colluded with the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to drive up energy prices, the watchdog Accountable.US noted Monday. Scalise (R-La.)—who has made opposing efforts to protect public lands from fossil fuel drilling a top legislative priority—took the money from the Williams Companies PAC, whose board includes Pioneer Natural Resources CEO Scott Sheffield, who was accused last month by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) of holding private conversations with the OPEC cartel in which he allegedly assured members that his company would throttle production, creating an artificial scarcity in a bid to boost oil prices. The majority leader ranks fourth among all House lawmakers in 2023-24 campaign contributions from oil and gas interests, according to the watchdog OpenSecrets. His $325,833 in Big Oil contributions trails only Rep. August Pfluger (R-Texas), who took $572,421; former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), who received $335,399; and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who got $328,019. https://www.commondreams.org/news/big-oil-political-contributions?utm_source=Common+Dreams&utm_campaign=2ed4c6b624-Week+in+Review%3A+Sat.+6%2F8%2F24&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-db383b6816-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D
