But thanks to Shapiro, thousands of Pennsylvania landowners lost out on tens of millions of dollars in royalty payments from one of the nation’s largest natural gas companies. In this episode, we take a look at how Shapiro’s determination to target natural gas companies translated into a big loss for thousands of Pennsylvanians.
