Team,
Every year, U.S. taxpayers hand over $15 billion in subsidies to the fossil fuel industry — all while coal, oil, and gas companies pollute our air, water, and land.
It’s unconscionable that we’re giving corporate giveaways to fossil fuel companies as they accelerate an already urgent climate crisis that is destroying our planet with rising temperatures and sea levels, warmer oceans, shrinking ice sheets, and more extreme weather events like wildfires and hurricanes.
Our focus should be on fighting for a greener, more equitable future for all — not lining the pockets of the fossil fuel industry and making our planet uninhabitable for future generations.
That’s why Ilhan just introduced the End Polluter Welfare Act with Senator Bernie Sanders to defend our planet by abolishing $150 billion in tax loopholes and subsidies to the fossil fuel industry over the next 10 years.
But the fossil fuel industry isn’t going down without a fight — last year alone, the oil, gas, and coal industries spent more than $115 million lobbying Congress to defend these dirty corporate giveaways.
It’s critical that we show powerful grassroots support to pass this bill, so Ilhan is counting on you to speak up.
Will you add your name as a citizen co-sponsor of the End Polluter Welfare Act to demand that Congress finally end the welfare system for fossil fuel companies and reinvest those resources in the American people?

Climate change is not a faraway threat — it is already here, and it’s deeply important that we do everything we can to combat it and preserve our planet for future generations.
Thank you for speaking out to make sure we take bold, necessary action.
