John,

We know that the fight to combat climate change has been an uphill battle. The rich and powerful who stand to lose from pro-environment policies have been waging a shadow war against our movement.

But don’t take our word for it, they can tell you themselves.

An ExxonMobil lobbyist was recorded admitting that the company has worked to sabotage climate legislation even while it publicly says it wants to advance climate solutions.

Most of us already know the long history of Exxon working with the American Petroleum Institute and others to sew doubt about climate science and thwart progress to address the problem, but this lobbyist’s admissions reveal that the company is still activity sabotaging real climate work — including our present efforts to pass critical climate policies in the American Jobs Plan .

We are up against some of the most powerful companies in the world who have the resources to wage a war behind-the-scenes. Grassroots supporters like you keep us in this fight. We know the fossil fuel lobby will target its resources at our climate champions. Will you pitch in today to support our members and fight back against wealthy fossil fuel interests? [[link removed]]

This lobbyist gave us insight into the inner workings of the efforts to curb pro-environment policies in his own words : *
“Did
we
aggressively
fight
against
some
of
the
science?
Yes.”
*
“Did
we
join
some
of
these
‘shadow
groups’
to
work
against
some
of
the
[climate
change]
early
efforts?
Yes,
that’s
true.”
*
“The
bottom
line
is
it’s
going
to
take
political
courage,
political
will
in
order
to
get
something
done.
And
that
just
doesn’t
exist
in
politics.
It
just
doesn’t.”


Companies like Exxon are counting on people being afraid to stand up, but SEEC members are standing up to fight for an end to the fossil fuel subsidies that support Exxon and a transition to a clean energy economy.

And companies like Exxon are counting on their resources to outweigh the power of our movement, but you can help us match them. Will you rush a donation today so we can go toe-to-toe with the most powerful companies in the world? [[link removed]]
