Sen. Whitehouse adds environmental lobbyist in Budget Committee climate-change fight

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Feb. 13, 2023

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse's (D-R.I.) Budget Committee has turned to a veteran environmental lobbyist to help take on the fossil-fuel industry.

Matt Bolden joined the committee from the Climate Leadership Council, where he was most recently director for policy and government relations. He worked as an environmental lobbyist through Americans for Carbon Dividends, CLC's advocacy arm.

Bolden is now climate-policy adviser to Budget Committee Democrats. Whitehouse has indicated that climate change would be a top priority in his first term as committee chair.

The committee has also added Jonathan Misk, the 117th Congress's staff director to the now-defunct House Oversight and Reform Committee's Economic and Consumer Policy Subcommittee, to continue Big Oil investigations that the Oversight and Reform Committee (now the Oversight and Accountability Committee) began last session. Misk's title with the Budget Committee is oversight director and senior counsel.

Subjects: House Oversight and Accountability Committee Economic Growth, Energy Policy and Regulatory Affairs Subcommittee; Jonathan N. Misk; Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI); Senate Budget Committee; Climate Leadership Council Inc.; Americans for Carbon Dividends Inc.; Matthew Ryan Bolden (Matt)
