Common Cause Report on Hydrofracking - "Deep Drilling, Deep Pockets"
- Description
- According to a study by Common Cause, natural gas interests have spent more than $747 million during a 10-year campaign to avoid government regulation of hydraulic “fracking." The report comes as the EPA is scheduled to publish new, preliminary findings about the potential dangers of fracking in 2012, giving the industry a powerful incentive to increase political spending now in an attempt to shape public opinion and the debate over fracking in Congress, as well as affect the outcome of the 2012 congressional elections.
