Exactly. Part of the "'I'm oppressed/need a voice/have a special interest, too' checklist."
That's one reason why, when politicians seemingly do "good deeds," I don't celebrate the politicians. I look at the positives and negatives associated with the "good deeds" and acknowledge that they all go on the politician's resume`, of sorts.
