The numbers are staggering. For more than a century, special tax breaks for oil and gas companies have been on the books -- and over the next decade they could cost taxpayers as much as $100 billion. But in 2014 these Big Oil subsidies could have bought 1.1 million Pell grants. Or 200,000 Park Rangers. Or healthcare for 2.1 million combat veterans. It’s clear that our money isn’t being put to the best use, in ways that benefit people and the planet over Big Polluters. We need you to turn up the heat on your Representatives in Congress to change their priorities. Tell Congress: Protect people and the planet, not Big Oil’s profits! Sincerely, Lukas Ross, Climate and energy campaigner, Friends of the Earth
