Read More Here: "Back in June 25, 2006, the FBI recorded Senator Ted Stevens talking with Bill Allen, an oil-services executive, about how he could get an oil pipeline bill passed through the Alaska Legislature.
Stevens said to Allen 'I'm gonna try to see if I can get some bigwigs from back here and say, 'Look … you gotta get this done.' Cheney wrote a letter two days later to the Alaska legislature recommending they 'promptly enact' a bill for the pipeline.
Allen gave Stevens $25,000 in finacial benefits and the former executive director of Cheney's energy task force went to work for BP as a lobbyist which was one of the firms designated to work on the pipeline."
