Their corporate headquarters are in Palo Alto, CA, which is in the 14 District and represented by Democrat Anna Eshoo. She and Pelosi do collude on energy (etc)

"...Energy

In 2005, Eshoo worked with Nancy Pelosi to develop the Democratic Innovation Agenda, which calls for America to achieve independence from Middle East oil over the next ten years. She has led efforts to raise fuel standards for automakers, and pursued reliance on alternative energy sources both in California and nationally. Legislation includes:

* H.R. 6, Creating Long-Term Energy Alternatives for the Nation (CLEAN) Energy Act, co-sponsor - Repeals $14 billion in subsidies to the gas and oil industries, and commits that money to renewable resources.

* H.R. 1506, Fuel Economy Reform Act, co-sponsor - Raises fuel economy standards, with a target goal of 35 miles per gallon by 2018.

* H.R. 1590, Safe Climate Act, co-sponsor - An emissions reduction bill which includes a provision calling for 20% of all electricity generated in the United States to come from renewable resources by 2008.

* H.R. 550, Securing America's Energy Independence Act, co-sponsor - Extends tax credits for homeowners and business using solar energy.

* S. 2598, Strategic Petroleum Reserve Fill Suspension and Consumer Protection Act - Temporarily suspends filling of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, in order to lower the cost of petroleum to consumers.

* H.R. 6074, Gas Price Relief for Consumers Act - Authorizes lawsuits against oil cartel members for price fixing.

* H.R. 1742, A bill to establish a program to deploy and integrate plug-in electric drive vehicles in multiple regions, which was ultimately incorporated into the body of H.R. 2454, the American Clean Energy and Security Act, which was the primary energy bill for 2009.
