Donations from oil, gas and coal interests to the signatories of the letter are Open Secrets that seemed ready for a new review. A Guardian survey of Federal Elections Commission data organized by the Center for Responsive Politics found that the industries gave a total of $10,694,284 to the 22 senators over the past three election cycles.

1. John Boozeman of ARkansas is one and

here is my LTE

US Repbulicon Senator John Boozman sold us out and sold his soul for $149,930. I guess that’s not considered a bad haul for a no-name senator from a back water state. But a Judas he is, none the less. He sold out ours and his grandchildrens’ future for the paltry sum of less than 150 thousand dollars. That money will be spent in a heartbeat, but the damage done from his call to exit the Paris Climate Accord will reverberate for generations to come.

For a party so concerned with unborn babies, Republicons show callous disregard about the children already on the earth. With leadership from Senators like John Boozman; contaminated water, filthy air and a planet stripped bare for profit is our future.

Heck of a Job, John Boozman. You are doing well for your overlords and masters, the Koch Brothers, et al. But to you, I say, if you value money over the Life of our planet and all of us who live on it, you are a pathetic specimen of a man.
