President Biden has called for an end to the Big Oil Bailout – tax breaks and loopholes that benefit the fossil fuel industry – in his American Jobs Plan. But getting it done will require an act of Congress, and that means it’s time to dust off your lobbying shoes and demand Congress take action. …

Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans already gave more than $3 billion of COVID response money to fossil fuel polluters. Now, they’re planning another big oil bailout as part of a Coronavirus response bill they’re negotiating. This time they don’t just want to give away our money: they want to let fossil fuel companies get away …

#SenateFail: Fossil Fuels got bailed out, we got sold out

We call it a #SenateFail: It’s been more than a month since the House passed a $3 trillion COVID relief package called the HEROES act. But the Senate has failed to so much as hold a hearing – and chose instead to go on a 2-week, 4th of July vacation. Since they took off for …

Trump’s newest FERC nominee is just as corrupt as you think.

by DrewUncategorized November 4, 2019November 4, 20191 comment

We’ve written before about how the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) rubber stamps new pipelines and fossil fuel infrastructure, locking us into decades fo climate chaos. And in particular how Trump’s FERC has acted again and again to prioritize fossil fuel profits over the health, safety and civil rights of American citizens. So, in context, …

Talk about the Green New Deal, not this Senate vote

by DrewHome, Opinion March 29, 2019March 29, 20191 comment

Let’s get one thing clear about this week’s Senate vote on a Green New Deal: Mitch McConnell is a twerp. The resolution that was voted on this week was not the non-binding Green New Deal resolution introduced by Sen. Edward Markey (D-Mass.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), which we’ve talked. a lot. about. That resolution …

On Friday, December 14, the South Carolina Public Service Commission (SC-PSC) held a hearing to approve Dominion Power’s proposal to buy our largest utility, SCE&G and its parent company SCANA.

Last chance to Stop Trump’s climate-denying Energy Nominee

by DrewAction, Home November 12, 2018November 12, 20181 comment

Donald Trump has nominated Bernard McNamee – a deeply unqualified, republican-hack, and climate-denier – to fill the vacant Republican seat at the Federal Energy Regulatory commission (FERC). The Senate is moving at “warp speed” to ram this latest dastardly, destructive nomination through. McNamee’s confirmation hearing has been scheduled for November 15 at 10am. We’re headed …
