U.S : Big Oil Blood Money.

 

 

 

Tell Congress : Polluters must pay to help clean up the mess they caused. Support the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act.   SIGN THE PETITION!           Friend,     Exxon has known for decades that climate change was real, and that their product was one of the main causes. But instead of acting to protect us, they spent millions on lobbying and dark money campaigns to empower climate deniers and keep their profits rolling in.   Now, after the UN’s International Panel on Climate Change has made it clear that we have no choice but to stop burning fossil fuels, who should pay for the transition ? The answer is clear : Make polluters pay.   The corporations that caused the climate crisis have enriched themselves massively―they must use their blood money to fund a transition toward clean energy.       SIGN NOW: Congress must pass the Make Polluters Pay Act and force Big Oil to clean up its mess!       Democratic U.S. Sens. Chris Van Hollen, Bernie Sanders, Ed Markey, Sheldon Whitehouse, Elizabeth Warren, and Jeff Merkley announced the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act. U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman will sponsor the House companion legislation.   Their plan would raise an estimated $500 billion by collecting fees from corporations for their past pollution and establish a Polluters Pay Climate Fund that directs the money towards the advancement of clean energy infrastructure, climate projects, and more.   It’s time to make these big polluters pay for the damage they’ve done. The Polluters Pay Climate Fund would be a move in the right direction, which is why groups across the country have endorsed the plan and are pushing Democrats to include it as part of their budget reconciliation package.       Sign the petition: Polluters must pay to help clean up the mess they caused. Support the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act.       Thanks,         Mike Phelan Progress America.
