Senate Investigates Trump's Alleged Quid Pro Quo with Oil Executives
The U.S. Senate finance and budget committees have launched an investigation into former President Donald Trump's alleged offer to roll back environmental regulations in exchange for $1 billion in campaign contributions from energy executives. The probe follows reports that Trump made these propositions at a campaign event, promising to reverse Biden administration policies and auction off more oil drilling leases. The American Petroleum Institute has dismissed the investigation as an election year stunt.
