Ted’s new bill is nothing but more favors for the oil and gas industry.
John,
Ted Cruz is usually known for blocking good legislation, so when we heard he was introducing new legislation, we were already skeptical. And sure enough, Ted’s new bill is nothing but more favors for the oil and gas industry:

“Sen. Ted Cruz is leading an effort to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act program designed to curb leaks of methane”
“oil and gas operators have been largely critical of the fee”

Methane is one of the most potent greenhouse gases in existence, and methane leaks are responsible for a large portion of the rise in global temperatures that are causing severe weather events to become more frequent and more extreme.
The idea that oil and gas operators should take care to ensure leaks are plugged — and that they should be on the hook for cleanup fees if they fail to do so — is a no-brainer for just about anyone. But not Ted!
Texans deserve a senator who fights for ALL of us. But for his entire time in Washington, Ted has actively worked against the interest of everyday families.
Instead, he’s served the interests of his wealthy donors and Donald Trump, putting everyday Texans last every time — and this new bill of his is no different.
We’re working to build a statewide movement to Cut Cruz on Election Day, but we need your help. Will you pitch in $5 to help us run ads and mobilize voters all over the state this November?
