Big Oil is trying to get Congress to give them blanket immunity for their climate crimes. As climate disasters like floods, fires, and hurricanes intensify, our communities are paying billions to deal with climate impacts. That's why a growing number of cities and states are filing lawsuits or passing new legislation that would make the fossil fuel industry pay their fair share for climate damages. Afterall, Big Oil knew for decades they were causing this crisis, but lied to the public and lobbied against climate solutions. Now, Big Oil is turning to its allies in Congress to try and secure a "liability waiver" that would give them blanket immunity from any efforts to hold them accountable for their climate crimes. This "get out of jail free" card would allow them to keep raking in record profits while we all pay the price of their pollution. This is the same type of legislation that the gun industry was able to pass in 2005 that makes it so they can’t be held responsible when their product kills people. Sign this petition to Congress telling them to oppose this Big Oil bailout. We can’t give this toxic industry any more free passes when our communities are burning, flooding, and being destroyed by climate change. Together we can win this fight and protect our progress.
