On Energy & Oil: Supported fracking, 76% Conservation Voters lifetime rating

Richmond has repeatedly broken with his party on major climate and environmental votes. He voted against Democratic legislation to place pollution limits on fracking -- and he voted for GOP legislation to limit the Obama administration's authority to more stringently regulate the practice. Richmond has received a lifetime rating of 76% from the League of Conservation Voters, and he scored 46% in 2018 -- one of the lowest ratings of any Democrat in Congress.
