"The [pro-Arctic National Wildlife Refuge drilling] coalition was industry-driven. That was the exact opposite of how to do it," said Dutko Group [1] lobbyist Stephen Brown. Brown is working with major chemical companies "to create a new coalition aligned with consumer groups to press for a legislative remedy to high prices for natural gas," called the Consumers Alliance for Affordable Natural Gas [2]. Coalition members include the American Chemistry Council [3], Dow Chemical, and DuPont; the 60 Plus Association [4], Consumer Federation of America [5], and AFL-CIO [6] "will become increasingly involved," said Brown. The coalition's goal is "to produce a stand-alone natural-gas bill," likely to include measures "reducing drilling restrictions."
