Dairy lobby funds raise questions on subsidies in Congress
A Ralph Nader group charges dairy interests funneled nearly $547,000 to incumbents in 17 months to sway votes on dairy subsidies. The study says PAC money correlated with support for higher prices and lower surplus, naming lawmakers including Harkin, Volkmer, Jones, and Durenberger. The House subcommittee led by Harkin plans to consider multiple dairy price reduction bills tomorrow.
