Big Oil-backed politicians are doing exactly what you’d expect them to do: actively trying to undermine clean energy progress for the sake of corporate polluters’ gain. They continue to push harmful legislation to prioritize and fast-track fossil fuel jobs over clean energy jobs while weakening environmental protections for frontline communities.
Under the guise of “permitting reform,” these efforts are nothing more than giveaways to the fossil fuel and extraction industries. We must stop these dirty, racist deals and fight for real policies and reforms that focus on a clean energy future, not a dirty fossil fuel past.
President Biden and members of Congress continue to compromise with Big Oil in order to appease industry donors by pushing their dangerous and harmful agenda. These dirty deals:
We must build a clean energy future, not the dirty fossil fuel past.
Big Oil-backed policies would set us back, putting everything at risk — a strong economy, the health and safety of families across the nation, and clean air and water. We need President Biden and Congress to listen to communities, reduce harmful pollution, and combat the climate crisis.
This May, Congress passed a dirty debt ceiling deal that gutted important environmental protections and instructed federal agencies to approve the Mountain Valley Pipeline, a 303-mile fracked gas pipeline that cuts through the heart of Appalachia. These moves had nothing to do with reducing the debt — they were a corrupt handout to Big Oil and their friends in Congress.
The resistance to the Mountain Valley Pipeline continues!
