The Washington Post: Trump’s energy and environment team leans heavily on industry lobbyists
Meredith McGehee, policy director at the Campaign Legal Center, says Trump’s team stands out because Trump has railed against a system he calls rigged and now appears to be taking advice from people at the heart of that same system.
“The fact that Trump has lobbyists intimately involved on key issues on which they lobby raises questions about what he means when he says the system is rigged,” said McGehee, who has lobbied for non-profit organizations and says she is not opposed to lobbyists. “He’s playing the same game.”
