St. Augustine Record Letter to the Editor: Congressman JOHN LUIGI MICA Compromised and Corrupted by Big Oil Contributions

By Dennis L. Lane

Editor: John Mica was elected as Florida's District 7 congressional representative. Commitment to serve the people of District 7 is the challenge of election. It is as though that promise is written in stone.

The people in the district require service without challenge or interference.

That representative has compromised the commitment to the people of District 7 when he accepted a more than $62,000 from 26 companies whose interests are making money from oil production.

Who must be served, the oil companies or the people of District 7? Let the people decide.

Which interests best serve the people?

Which action reflects the challenge of election?
