ALUMINUM ASSOCIATION, INC

Just following the Light and researching to find the corporations that pay the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) through the lobbying process, here is what I have found, so far:

https://www.opensecrets.org/revolving/rev_summary.php?id=18951

 The EPA has over 350 clients. Of these the one that jumped out right away was the Aluminum Association.  As we deal with a display of toxic amounts of aluminum everyday in our environment it was eye catching to say the least.

"A special interest's lobbying activity may go up or down over time, depending on how much attention the federal government is giving their issues. Particularly active clients often retain multiple lobbying firms, each with a team of lobbyists, to press their case for them."

  Here is the page that gives the Aluminum Associations breakdown and recording of lobby dollars spent over time.  Notice this year is already over $62,000.  (but of course Alcoa is already over $600,000 this year : http://www.opensecrets.org/lobby/clientsum.php?id=D000031387&year=2013)

I went to the lobbying Aluminum Assn page where there were 4 issues they were addressing.  I went with the Clean Air & Water.

Seems the content of the Specific issue is "Clean Air legislation and related climate change issues".

Now the BIG QUESTION, what is it exactly they are lobbying for and whose back will be scratched and who will be the losers?  More research needed here but this gives us an idea of who to contact and maybe even who to serve arrest warrants down the road for their participation in not only crimes against humanity but against all life on the planet.
