The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) today released a report, "Smoke Screen," that profiles many of the former Bush officials and the roles they are now playing on behalf of oil, gas, mining and other powerful energy interests. CREW’s Smoke Screen report examines the critical positions several of these former Bush officials held on key bodies such as the White House’s Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ). According to CREW’s report, at least 22 former Bush-era climate officials have moved into lobbying or government relations. Fourteen of them are registered lobbyists.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is a non-profit legal watchdog group dedicated to holding public officials accountable for their actions.
