A senior official in the Biden-Harris administration whose ties to environmental extremist groups drew scrutiny during her Senate confirmation hearings was selected to lead the anti-fossil fuel nonprofit The Wilderness Society when she leaves her current post. The non-profit’s PAC has donated more than $50,000 to many progressive candidates, including Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Bob Casey. D-Pa., and Kamala Harris, according to public records.
Tracy Stone-Manning, director of the Bureau of Land Management, will assume the position of president with the nonprofit in February, according to the Associated Press. The news raises the possibility that other figures in the current administration may find new homes with influential environmental groups that worked closely with federal agencies under the Biden-Harris administration.
