Hey – did you see this important email about Ro taking on Exxon?
We launched a petition for everyday Americans to show their support for Ro as he takes on executives of Exxon Mobil Corporation, Shell, Chevron and other major oil and gas companies for their part in blocking climate legislation. Can you add your name now so Ro knows you’re with him in this fight to save our planet?
Publicly, Exxon pushes a carbon tax as a major solution to fighting climate change. Privately, they can barely contain their glee at the barriers it faces in Congress – barriers that they’ve admitted to funding and lobbying for.
The American people deserve to know just how fossil fuel lobbyists exert their influence on Congress. That’s exactly why Ro is calling on these oil and gas executives to testify before Congress.
Thank you in advance for signing on,
Heather Purcell

Subject: Exxon's shadow campaign
Ro is in the New York Times for his bold response to a leaked video of an Exxon lobbyist bragging about blocking climate legislation.
Ro is demanding that executives of Exxon Mobil Corporation, Shell, Chevron and other major oil and gas companies testify before Congress about the industry’s decades-long effort to wage disinformation campaigns around climate change. Can you add your name to show you’re with Ro as he takes on some of the most powerful corporations in the world?
The fossil fuel industry continues to manipulate public opinion and exert undue influence in shaping policy in Congress. That’s why Ro will not rest until we bring the fossil fuel executives in to testify in front of Congress – even if it means issuing subpoenas.
For decades, fossil fuel companies have lied to the public, to regulators, and to Congress about the true danger posed by their products. The recent tape revealing Exxon’s lobbying practices only proves the industry’s disinformation campaign is alive and well.
That's why Ro is now demanding documents and testimony from the world’s most powerful fossil fuel companies, which have resisted Congressional oversight in the past. We need to show the fossil fuel industry – and the politicians they’re lobbying – that we’re with Ro and we demand answers.
Thank you for taking action today,
Team Ro
