Hi Friend,

First, we hope you are in good health and safe during this crisis. Given the COVID-19 outbreak, NYCC has suspended in-person meetings and events to avoid spreading the virus. Yet big corporate special interests are working overtime to ram their agendas through. Join us to learn how to fight back; on-line and from your home.

Right now, Trump wants to bail oil and gas corporations. Join the webinar on Tuesday, March 17, at 5:30PM to find out how you can take critical action from your home to tell Congress: #NoFossilFuelBailouts !

In recent days, oil and gas stock prices have been plummeting as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and an oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia. Trump’s oil and gas cronies have been scrambling to get him to use tax dollars to bail them out.

Oil and gas corporations used fracking to ramp up production (and they didn’t care about the pollution they caused). They’re drilling out so much, though, that oil and gas prices have been too low for them to make profits. As a result, they’ve been on financial life support even before Coronavirus and the Saudi/Russia price war. Now, they’re desperate for a bail out, which will benefit their CEOs and owners, but leave behind workers and communities.

Click here to RSVP to Tuesday’s webinar! We must urge Congress to reject Trump’s proposals to bail out the irresponsible fossil fuel industry that is destroying the planet.

Now is the time to scale down fossil fuels, invest in renewable energy, green infrastructure, and millions of good, green jobs for the working class: a Green New Deal. It’s critical that we send this message loud and clear to Congress as they continue to hash out stimulus proposals.

Sign up here to join the call to help stop Trump’s bail outs for big oil.

Onwards,

Patrick Houston
