WileECoyote  US Chamber of Commerce Interesting piece.

"The chamber spent more than $144 million on lobbying and grass-roots organizing last year, a 60% increase over 2008, and well beyond the spending of individual labor unions or the Democratic or Republican national committees."

ellenp  Curious that the US Chamber of Commerce's main environmental policy analyst Bill Kovacs used to work for Sunshine Makers (who manufacture the Simple Green line of products) and has a history on Capitol Hill working to enact environmental law. I guess he'll say whatever Thomas Donohue tells him to ...

ellenp  Interesting interlocks on the boards at National Chamber Foundation and Center for International Private Enterprise, both non-profit arms of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
