Did you know that every year billions of tax dollars are given to the fossil fuel industry in direct federal subsidies?
Subsidizing dirty energy companies is reckless. These corporate handouts drive an unprecedented expansion of U.S. fossil fuel development — and every dollar the federal government spends to support dirty energy is money diverted from vital programs that help communities.
The End Polluter Welfare Act would eliminate dozens of tax loopholes and giveaways that benefit the fossil fuel industry. We can't continue to use the energy of the past if we want a clean energy future. And we can't have a clean energy future without taking on the fossil fuel industry and halting the expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure. The End Polluter Welfare Act is vital to moving us off fossil fuels.
Tell your members of Congress: Pass the End Polluter Welfare Act!
Dear Member of Congress,
Why are oil and gas corporations being given billions of tax dollars in direct federal subsidies every year?
These corporations are responsible for polluting our planet -- why are they being rewarded for it? Enough! Every dollar Congress gives away to dirty energy companies is a dollar taken from vital programs that help communities.
We have to stop enabling the corporations that are endangering our future. I urge you to support the End Polluter Welfare Act. This legislation would eliminate dozens of tax loopholes and giveaways that benefit the fossil fuel industry.
I don't want my tax dollars propping up the oil and gas industry. I want bold action that rapidly expands renewable energy while moving us off fossil fuels. That starts with ending the federal bankroll for oil and gas.
Our money SHOULD NOT be going into the pockets of fossil fuel executives. I urge you to pass the End Polluter Welfare Act and start putting my tax dollars toward programs that help, not harm.
