Loews Hotels says it will no longer allow a fundraiser for Sen. Josh Hawley, which is scheduled for February, to be held at one of its hotels. The move is the latest fallout from the Missouri Republican s widely criticized decision to object to Electoral College results during Congress certification of President-elect Joe Biden s win. Now, Arizona State Rep. Mark Finchem has criticized the Hotel chain with Hitler and Stalin comment, sparking a fury on the Internet.
The fundraiser was raised by a political action committee, Fighting for Missouri, and was scheduled to take place February 12 to 15 in Orlando, Florida, at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando. A flyer for the event stated a fun-filled-family-friendly time, with tickets ranging from $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the group size.

The data shows that filings under the Environmental Matters PACER Nature of Suit tag occurred an average of 1.3 times each day during the last two years.
These environmental lawsuits are filed fairly consistently although there are some spikes, and the lawsuits tend to lag in November of both years. There was a dip in litigation between March and June 2020, likely connected to the COVID-19 pandemic-related shutdowns. Filings picked up by the end of summer with 52 filings in August. Overall, there have been 954 federal lawsuits filed under the Environmental Matters case tag since the beginning of 2019.
