Koch Industries Lobbyist To Lead Trump Energy Team

The Washington Post is reporting that Mike Catanzaro, a former senior energy staffer for Republican Party House Majority Leader John Boehner, will lead Donald Trump's energy transition team.

Catanzaro now works as a partner at the lobbying firm CGCN, where his clients include Noble Energy, Koch Industries, EnCana Oil and Gas, Halliburton, Devon Energy and others. According to Desmog,  for those clients, he lobbies on issues such as pushing for more drilling on public lands on behalf of EnCana, against emissions regulations for drilling onshore and offshore wells on public lands for Hess Corporation and Devon, and for offshore drilling in Israel on behalf of Noble Energy.
