| Notes |
Southern Company of Georgia and Hunton & Williams, a law and lobbying firm that represents Southern on environmental issues, have also played a key role behind the scenes in pushing attorneys general to take actions that help protect its coal-burning power plants. Southern is also a major contributor to the Republican Attorneys General Association.
Executives from the Southern Company, which is represented by Hunton & Williams, also frequently reach out directly to Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens’s office, raising similar concerns about the then-proposed E.P.A. air pollution rule. |
