John, today our digital team was going to write you an email about Big Oil’s price gouging, but we thought John’s tweets on the issue summed it up pretty well. ⬇️

Paying 18 cents more a gallon might be a drop in the bucket for someone as absurdly wealthy as Dr. Oz.
But for a single mother with two kids making a shitty minimum wage of $7.25/hr, it *really* matters.

Big Oil greed doesn’t end at the pump.
America’s Farmers are getting crushed on the job because they can’t fuel their tractors, + can’t repair broken equipment either.
We need to make more sh*t in America to bring down these costs.

We can use American energy to drive down prices at the Gas Pump + employ American workers to drive down the price of everything, for everyone.
This isn’t a radical proposal. It’s basic common sense. 💯

John, if you’re with John on this, please add your name to our petition today demanding that Big Oil stop their immoral price gouging at the pumps immediately. Working Pennsylvanians cannot afford corporate greed.

Gas is over $5 a gallon right now.
The last time a barrel of crude oil cost this much was in July 2014. At that point a gallon of gas only cost about $3.54.
Let’s be clear: Oil companies don’t need to be charging this much for gas. They’re just doing it to make excess profits.

If it wasn’t for the greed of oil companies, gas prices wouldn’t be this high.
We can use American energy to drive down prices at the pump for American workers, and we can use American workers to drive down the price of everything, for everyone.

Families across Pennsylvania are paying $5 a gallon for gas, while Exxon Mobile, Chevron, and other oil companies are making record profits.
It's morally wrong, ESPECIALLY while these massive oil companies and their CEOs are doing better than ever.
We need to crack down on this

If you agree with John, please add your name today to demand that Big Oil stop price gouging immediately. Big Oil should not be able to rob Americans at the pump in the name of excess profit.
