Insist the Koch brothers testify in Congress


Billionaire oil tycoons Charles and David Koch continue shunning transparency. What are they hiding?
The Koch brothers have refused to answer fundamental questions about how they stand to gain financially from the Keystone XL oil pipeline, a 1,700-mile long boondoggle that will make the Kochs richer. 

Rep. Henry Waxman has invited the Koch brothers to testify before Congress, but the Kochs' allies in Congress are dragging out the process.

The Koch brothers have entrenched allies on Capitol Hill who're doing everything they can to stonewall oversight. On the key committee with jurisdiction over energy issues, the Kochs and their employees were the largest oil and gas donor, giving a total of $282,700 to committee members.
