Make Polluters Pay

Congress needs to make big polluters pay for their past pollution.

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

Last week, Big Oil executives appeared before my committee. Here are some facts. We will continue our investigation and hold them accountable.

The climate crisis is all around us: severe weather, increasing temperatures, the recent devastating effects of Hurricane Ida in NY. But that doesn't stop fossil fuel companies from putting profits ahead of public welfare.

@SenSchumer it’s time to #MakePollutersPay.

[Center for Climate Integrity @climatecosts]

"The findings offer insight into the growing public pressure on the oil and gas industry as it faces dozens of lawsuits by states and municipalities."

Every year we face “once in a lifetime” crises, never stopping to process all that we’ve lost.

Every time we call on our elected leaders to deliver, all of a sudden their hands are tied.

We can’t go on like this, it’s time to act now. There is no more time left to waste.

These execs know full well that their continued harm towards communities depends on the spread of misinformation. They’ve been doing it for years.

Accountability begins now. #MakePollutersPay

💯 @SenWhitehouse.

And the actual people want the corporations to be held accountable.

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

Massive corporations shouldn’t have a greater say in our democracy than actual people.

.@SenSchumer @SpeakerPelosi @RepRichardNeal @RonWyden: we all heard what these oil executives said yesterday. They've lobbied officials against climate action. They refused to cut ties with @APIenergy.

We have no choice but to hold them accountable and make them pay.

[Make Polluters Pay @polluterspaynow]

Yesterday was a monumental day for the fight to hold Big Oil accountable.

This momentum should drive us to do more: hold these executives accountable *and* make these corporations pay for their past pollution that they poisoned our communities with.

"The search for accountability is at the root of...the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act. The upcoming hearings could help make the case for the industry’s financial liability on climate."

The case has been made. #MakePollutersPay

Accountability is passing the Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act and ensuring these companies are held responsible for their past pollution.

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

The Big Oil industry can't hide its efforts & billions spent on climate disinformation campaigns any longer.

Just now, we announced subpoenas for the documents that our witnesses have refused to provide. There will be accountability.

[Make Polluters Pay @polluterspaynow]

make them pay for their past pollution next 😍

[Oversight Dems @OversightDems]

🚨BREAKING: @RepMaloney has announced her intent to issue subpoenas to ExxonMobil, BP, Chevron, Shell, and API for key documents they have refused to produce regarding the Committee’s investigation into the fossil fuel industry’s climate disinformation campaign.

[Make Polluters Pay @polluterspaynow]

@AntoniaJuhasz @AOC *clears throat*
The Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act would require these very polluters like @exxonmobil to pay their fair share for their past pollution in order to fund clean infrastructure. 😊

[Make Polluters Pay @polluterspaynow]

Take note that all the elite questioning is coming from Make Polluters Pay supporters like @AOC, @RashidaTlaib, @PeterWelch, @RoKhanna 💅

[Antonia Juhasz @AntoniaJuhasz]

Exxon Mobil Darren Woods admits to contacting members of congress regarding the the reconciliation bill in questioning from @AOC.

[Make Polluters Pay @polluterspaynow]

Make. Polluters. Pay.

[Brad Johnson SUBSCRIBE TO HILLHEAT.NEWS @climatebrad]

.@aoc: to @exxonmobil's Woods: Have you participated in any calls with members of Congress about the reconciliation bill?

Woods: I have.
