Patrick sent a message to Kelcy Warren – Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Energy Transfer Partners, L. P. Email Address that said:
I am extremely disturbed to learn that you are on the board of the TPWD. How is it you don't have a direct conflict of interest with the Public of the State of Texas? Energy Transfer Partners, your company stands to profit by how much since you paid Governor Abbott to run for office? This is unapologetically beyond the scope of impropriety. West Texas is a gem, especially the areas you want to exploit, steal and destroy. It's human beings like you who are killing the future by using up the natural resources that our children and grandchildren look to all in one generation. Stand up and look in the mirror while you violate the Public trust. Why is it you belong on the board of the most sacred organization (TPWD) in Texas?
