KEY VOTE ALERT: Will Shelley Berkley Continue Her Streak Of Voting Against Common-Sense Efforts To Lower Gas Prices & Create Jobs?
With Americans facing record gas prices, the House of Representatives this week is scheduled to vote on another common-sense initiative aimed at addressing this growing problem. The Jobs and Energy Permitting Act will not only create an estimated 54,000 jobs, but will also ensure that the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System remains operable, protecting energy supplies for millions of American families and small businesses struggling with high gas prices.

Will Menendez Condemn Smear Campaign Against Navy Reserve Intelligence Officer?
As U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) prepares for a tough reelection battle, the Auditor reports that “[s]omeone is trying to stop a U.S. Senate campaign by biotech mogul John Crowley before it even starts. The Auditor has obtained an opposition research memo about Crowley — but it’s unclear where it came from.” Notably, the attack fell flat, as the Auditor noted that it attempted to smear Crowley – a well-regarded biotechnology entrepreneur and U.S. Navy Reserve intelligence officer, who is not a declared candidate for any office – for short-term losses by his biotech company, which are “perfectly normal” and “typical in the biotech business.” However, “[w]hat The Auditor found more interesting was someone is already circulating research on Crowley, considered a strong candidate because of his wealth and compelling personal story: He took over the biotech firm and raised $100 million to research the rare genetic disorder that afflicts…
