Pennsylvania Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro applied as state attorney general to be part of a Bloomberg -sponsored program to appoint special climate prosecutors to go after the energy industry in his state.
The program, which is legal, has placed Bloomberg -funded oil and gas attorneys in several jurisdictions, including in Connecticut , Illinois , New Mexico , and Washington , D.C. , where they focus on climate issues.
Shapiro 's office wrote that he needs more "economic resources" to continue being a leader of "progressive" climate efforts.
A spokesperson for the State Impact Center confirmed that Shapiro had applied and been denied.
Governor Josh Shapiro has been referred to as a "moderate" and "practical" since becoming governor, but his past rhetoric could come back to haunt him.
Presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris has previously called to ban fracking, a main driver of energy and jobs in Pennsylvania .
The State Impact Center's self-declared "nonpartisan" label is a smokescreen allowing it to pursue ideologically motivated, "progressive" goals.
