The Build Back Better Act which passed the House is now stalled in the Senate, largely thanks to Senator Krysten Sinema and coal baron Senator Joe Manchin withholding their key votes after months of cutbacks and compromises.

This delay of the Build Back Better Act (BBB) is a crucial time to demand the Senate remove billions of dollars in handouts to dirty energy corporations in the final version of the bill. Sign the petition TODAY ([link removed]) !

Right now, BBB invests in subsidies and incentives ([link removed]) for false climate solutions and harmful energy technologies that will devastate frontline communities, including:
* Continued oil and gas extraction ([link removed])

* Nuclear power production
* Biofuels and biomass power plants
* Carbon Capture and Storage, including coal, fracking, and enhanced oil recovery projects
* Hydrogen power production that depends on fossil fuel energy
* Waste-to-energy production, which is incineration of municipal solid waste that produces high levels of local pollution

Tell the Senate to remove dirty energy subsidies from BBB here! ([link removed])
