    JOE RIIS JOE Oil and Gas Industry Investments in the National Rifle Association and Safari Club International Reshaping American Energy, Land, and Wildlife Policy By Matt Lee-Ashley April 2014 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Oil and Gas Industry Investments in the National Rifle Association and Safari Club International Reshaping American Energy, Land, and Wildlife Policy By Matt Lee-Ashley April 2014 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 3 Oil and gas industry investments in three major sportsmen groups 5 Safari Club International 9 The National Rifle Association 11 Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation 13 Impact of influence: How the oil and gas industry’s investments are paying off 14 Threats to endangered and threatened wildlife in oil- and gas-producing regions 19 Threats to the backcountry 22 Threats to public access and ownership 25 Conclusion 27 About the author and acknowledgments 28 Endnotes Introduction and summary Two bedrock principles have guided the work and advocacy of American sports- men for more than a century. First, under the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, wildlife in the United States is considered a public good to be conserved for everyone and accessible to everyone, not a commodity that can be bought and owned by the highest bidder.1 Second, since President Theodore Roosevelt’s creation of the first wildlife refuges and national forests, sportsmen have fought to protect wildlife habitat from development and fragmentation to ensure healthy game supplies. These two principles, however, are coming under growing fire from an aggressive and coordinated campaign funded by the oil and gas industry. As part of a major effort since 2008 to bolster its lobbying and political power, the oil and gas industry has steadily expanded its contributions and influ- ence over several major conservative sportsmen’s organizations, including Safari Club International, or SCI, the National Rifle Association, or NRA, and the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation.

  • The Significance and Impact of Women
    THE SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF WOMEN ON THE RISE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN TWENTIETH CENTURY TEXAS Kristi Throne Strickland, B.B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2000 APPROVED: Ronald E. Marcello, Major Professor and Chair Donald K. Pickens, Committee Member Randolph B. Campbell, Committee Member Alexandra Leavell, Committee Member Elizabeth Esterchild, Committee Member Richard M. Golden, Chair of the Department of History C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Strickland, Kristi Throne, The Significance and Impact of Women on the Rise of the Republican Party in Twentieth Century Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), August, 2000, 267 pp., references, 180 titles. During the early twentieth century, the Democratic party dominated the conservative political landscape of Texas. Through the 1920s, members of the Republican party focused on patronage and seemed content to maintain the position of minority party. A growing dissatisfaction with the liberal policies of the New Deal during the 1930s created opportunities for state Republicans to woo dissenting Democrats to their side. With a change of leadership within the state GOP after 1950, the Republicans waged serious campaigns for offices for the first time. Republican men exercised their political yearnings through leadership positions. Women, on the other hand, were shut out of the leadership ranks, and, as a consequence, they chose a traditional female strategy. They organized clubs in order to support the new leadership and rising candidates. Against formidable odds, Republican women acted as foot soldiers and worked diligently to attain their objectives.

    ************************************************************* Kathy Sullivan, Chair September 23,2004 - Lawrence Norton, Esquire General Counsel Federal Election Commission 999 E Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20463 C RE: Complaint of the New Hampshire Democratic Party Against Nader for Choices for America, and Norway Hill Associates, Inc., MUR 55 13 Dear Mr. Norton: r- On August 10, 2004, the New Hampshire Democratic Party filed the above-referenced complaint with respect to activities of Norway Hill Associates, Inc. in collecting signatures to get Ralph Nader on the ballot as a candidate for President in the State of New Hampshire. Based upon additional information that has come to our attention, including the FEC filing made by the Nader Campaign this past week, we would like to s’upplementthe complaint filed August 10,2004. We believe that this FEC filing establishes coordination betweenSNorwayHil1and the Nader Campaign. We also believe it shows Norway Hill and the Nader Campaign are now working in concert to “cure” impermissible in-kind corporate donations by attributing these donations to individuals after the fact. As stated in our August 10,2004 complaint, Norway Hill Associates, Inc., a New Hampshire for profit corporation, undertook a signature drive to get Ralph Nader on the ballot in New Hampshire. According to published press reports on August 10, 2004 (see Portsmouth HeraZd, August 10,2004, attached as Exhibit A), aNader spokesman denied knowledge of the petition effort. Earlier press reports raised questions of whether Republican signature gatherers were making in-kind donations to the Nader campaign. (See Union Leader, August 8, 2004, attached as Exhibit B.) . When asked on August 9th about whether Norway Hill had made an in-kind donation, the company’s principal, David Carney, said he hadn’t yet figured out what it was.

Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degrees of Master of Public Affairs & Master of Science in Social Work The University of Texas at Austin August 2016 Dedication No one grows up in Texas without learning about Ann Richards. Richards carried an air of invincibility about her. Many remember her as reckless, nearly wild. Her name and the idea of a political glass ceiling are inextricably tied. Her accomplishments as a politician and a public servant paved the way for women all over the country to achieve new levels of political success. This is for Ann and all of the other Texas women who have left us with legacies of feminism, friendship, and recklessness so that we may have something to aspire to. Acknowledgements Thank you Dr. Victoria Rodriguez and Dr. Diane Rhodes for all of your support and encouragement and for being amazing Texas women. v Abstract Dancing The Texas Two-Step Backwards: The Public Policy Legacy of Ann Richards Virginia Leigh Yachinich, M.P.Aff./M.S.S.W.
