Oh. dark money, green energy: Darcy cartoon
CLEVELAND, Ohio — ‘Inexperienced power’ in Ohio is now black and blue. After being lobbied by a pure fuel trade exec below the guise of a ‘darkish cash’ group, Governor Mike DeWine and Republican legislature leaders have reclassified methane stuffed, blue flame pure fuel fueling world warming as ‘inexperienced power.’ What’s going to they rebrand subsequent?
They made the reclassification briefly order and stuffed it into Home Invoice 507 on poultry that was handed into regulation.
A darkish cash group is basically a pac that qualifies as 501 (c)(4) nonprofit that may elevate and donate limitless funds with out disclosing the sources. Nevertheless on this case, one of many sources is understood.
The rebranding of methane laced pure fuel in Ohio got here on the behest of Thomas Raskin an Govt Vice President of Ariel Corp, a distributor of pure fuel compressors. However Raskin contacted and lobbied Ohio’s Republican leaders below the letterhead of The Empowerment Alliance (TEA) which is a darkish cash group.
Governor DeWine’s workplace tried to shrug off the reclassification as inconsequential “symbolic language.”
“Given the language was symbolic or opinion language, the Governor made the choice that this provision was to price vetoing your complete invoice over,” mentioned DeWine’s spokesman Dan Tierney.
If the change was so meaningless, why did the trade exec, Governor and Republican Home and Senate leaders go to the trouble ?
The absurd rebrand demonstrates once more ‘darkish cash’ shopping for political motion is the actual ‘inexperienced power.’
