He also tried to push a regulation in Congress that would have required offshore rigs to have a work boat nearby.

He actually had a lot of O&G support prior to this. Remember his "Drilling=Jobs" sign? He basically did a 180 after getting his contributions from the International Seafarer Union and some contractors. He even co sponsored the bill with liberal Elijah Cummings.
