Congressman Polis hates fracking, but his investment adviser doesn’t.
Last week Congressman Jared Polis sued his neighbor to stop them from drilling on their own property, because it “caused a loss of enjoyment” on his million dollar vacation home in Weld County. The suit has since been withdrawn to give Polis and his lawyers more time to gather evidence.

I bet within a year the arsehole is drilling his new well.
This gay dude Polis is worth millions
Inherited from his parents
he did some work to get these millions
