Friend, Just days ago, the House Budget Committee advanced its billionaire polluter tax
scam in the dead of night. The House Rules Committee just did the same thing —
they voted on this same bill at 1am on Wednesday. This isn’t an accident. They’re making decisions under cover of darkness because
they KNOW how cruel, costly, and unpopular this bill is. It would take a
sledgehammer to virtually all federal support for climate and clean energy
investments, driving up energy costs by hundreds of dollars per year for
families across the country. Congress needs to hear from you now, while there’s still time. This bill would
hurt millions of people for the sake of giving tax breaks to billionaires and
polluting corporations. Tell your members of Congress to vote against ANY attempt to gut environmental protections and clean energy incentives. [link removed] Terminating almost all federal clean energy investments will raise electricity
and gas prices for families and businesses and stop our nation’s clean energy
progress in its tracks.But that’s not all, Friend. Here are some other lowlights from this
bill: Selling off our public lands to billionaire polluters damaging our communities, water, and health.Increasing families’ costs by ending clean energy and efficiency programs, rebates and incentives and repealing vehicle efficiency standards.Putting polluting billionaires above the law by creating pay-to-play schemes and other sweetheart deals for oil and gas executives to jam through massive infrastructure projects while sidestepping review, community input, and judicial scrutiny for drilling, pipelines, and methane gas exports.Threatening our health and increasing families’ medical costs by eliminating programs that clean up our schools, dirty diesel trucks and buses, and ports, while cutting funding to help communities track harmful air pollution.Gutting popular clean energy tax credits, which will mean higher electricity costs for struggling families and businesses, tanking the U.S. manufacturing resurgence, and ceding leadership to China. Time and time again we have seen that people, even in districts represented by
Republicans, want to keep the current clean energy initiatives. And they want to
keep public lands in public hands — not turn them over to polluters and real
estate developers. We have the power to make a difference and protect federal clean energy
investments and public lands, but we have to act NOW. Sign the petition and tell your members of Congress not to vote for ANY cuts to clean energy and community safeguards. [link removed] Thank you for taking action. Matthew Davis
