John,
Fossil fuel companies have known about the threat of climate change for DECADES. Over the course of nearly forty years, these companies spent millions and millions and millions of dollars to spread disinformation about the dangers of fossil fuels.
That’s why we want fossil fuel executives from companies like ExxonMobil to testify before Congress. We need it on the record, in front of the entire country, what these companies knew, when they knew it, and how they’ve stopped action to protect the environment.
Not only does our movement need to demand accountability from the world’s most powerful fossil fuel companies, which have resisted Congressional oversight in the past, we also need to show the fossil fuel industry — and the politicians they’re lobbying — that we won’t allow their multi-billion dollar federal handouts to stand. Not when the climate crisis is already exacting catastrophic damage across the country.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
