Sen. Richard Shelby steers cash to ex-aides
Since 2008, Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby has steered more than $250 million in earmarks to beneficiaries whose lobbyists used to work in his Senate office — including millions for Alabama universities represented by a former top staffer.
In a mix of revolving-door and campaign finance politics, the same organizations that have enjoyed Shelby’s earmarks have seen their lobbyists and employees contribute nearly $1 million to Shelby’s campaign and political action committee since 1999, according to federal records.

Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) has long been one of the most prodigious earmarkers in Congress, and he’s unapologetic about sending money back home.
