for polluters, industry lobbyists, & politicians!
Success Stories
Lisa Murkowski matched with "Jeff," a K Street Lobbyist
If PolluterHarmony worked for a Senator from Alaska, it can work for any politician who's willing to sell out her constituents for dirty industry money.
When I moved from Alaska to Washington, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to find someone who was right for me. The first couple of years were tough — I met a lot of potential matches but couldn't find the perfect one. My dad had lived in DC for years and had a lot of success with PolluterHarmony, so I decided to try it.
When I saw Jeff's profile, I couldn't believe I found a lobbyist with so much money to contribute to my re-election campaigns and so many big coal and utility industry clients. Arch Coal, Southern Company, Edison Electric... I thought "He's just what I'm looking for!" We instantly clicked — in our first phone conversation, he told me he could bundle $10,000 by our first date. We met in person a week later, and he had the check in hand.
By our second date we knew that this was the real thing for us both. He told me he'd been trying to undermine the Clean Air Act since the first Bush term. As the ranking member on the Energy and Natural Resources committee, I was happy to help him by slowing down clean energy policy and introducing polluter-friendly legislation.
Thanks to PolluterHarmony, I've finally found my perfect match. Together, we're blocking the EPA from taking on big polluters. And now that the Supreme Court has opened the floodgates for corporate funded elections, Jeff's able to funnel even more money into my re-election efforts this November."
Charles Koch matched with Blanche Lincoln
Even though I'm a Libertarian and she's a Democrat, pHarmony knew we were a perfect match.
Sometimes, it's not easy to get noticed even when you are a shadowy billionaire that owns a huge private Kansas-based oil and chemical corporation.
After building relationships all over the country, I wasn't sure I'd find someone out there for me. Though I was skeptical at first, I finally decided to try PolluterHarmony, hoping to meet my perfect partner.
When the PolluterHarmony compatibility test matched me up with a Democratic senator from Arkansas, I was sure the site was a scam. How could a Libertarian like me possibly relate to a Democrat? But then I read Blanche's profile, I realized maybe I was wrong. She wrote that she loves discovering new places, especially for oil drilling. More importantly, she considers herself someone who likes taking risks, like with public health and safety. Best of all, she had one of the worst environmental voting records of any Democrat on Capitol Hill.
When we first met, I knew I'd found my match. Within a few weeks, I was funneling thousands of dollars into her campaign fund while she quietly worked to stall climate and clean energy policy.
I'm really glad that I overcame my doubts and tried PolluterHarmony. Without it, a billionaire oil baron like me would have never met my Democratic match from Arkansas.
Joe Barton matched with Michael Morris, AEP
I had no trouble meeting big oil fat cats, but I wanted to find something deeper.
Being from Texas, I had no trouble meeting big oil fat cats who would wine and dine me and fill my war chest at election time. But after a while, that was boring. The same old flings and junkets again and again. I wanted to find something deeper. That's when I signed up at PolluterHarmony.
Right away, I saw a profile of this guy Mike from American Electric Power. At first, I was nervous about doing a long-distance relationship. He's from Ohio you know. Plus, I was a little worried that he said he was "leading the way" on climate change, since I'm not a big believer of all that "global warming" or "peer-reviewed science." I'd rather call it "cap and tax". He was saying climate regulation is inevitable and that Congress needs to pass comprehensive legislation. I've been fighting against clean energy and global warming legislation for decades.
To my amazement, our differences weren't a barrier to a caring relationship. In fact the disagreements we have add a little bit of spice! In the end, Mike and I were a perfect match. As the largest coal-burning electric utility, AEP has plenty of extra cash to spend on me from the bills they send to people every month, and they don't seem to mind when I attempt to kill every pro-environment bill that comes through my committee.
Together, Mike and I are working hard to make sure no pesky regulations stop America from burning every last scrap of coal we've got. We really found something special, and it's all thanks to PolluterHarmony.
