RIAA backed Congress people named and shamed

THE CONSUMERIST magazine has published a list of Congress people who have taken money from the Recording Industry of America (RIAA) in a bid to get themselves elected.

The money is not large by campaign fund standards but might give an indication of who the RIAA thinks supports it in Congress.

They seem to be a mix of Republicans and Democrats. Robert Wexlar, a Democrat took the most, $9,000. Lamar Smith, a Republican took $7,500. Most of the rest took $1,000.
