Fossil Fuel industry pays for Trump to party
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Filings released today by the Federal Election Commission show that fossil fuel companies poured nearly $7 million into parties and festivities for Trump’s inaugural committee, according to a preliminary analysis by Friends of the Earth.
Lukas Ross, activista sobre clima y energía de Amigos de la Tierra, emitió la siguiente declaración:
“This is the latest piece of evidence that Trump’s presidency is an exercise in corporate giveaways. Trump is handing our country over to fossil fuel corporations, who will desecrate our public lands and defile our oceans for dirty oil and coal. Trump got to party on Big Oil’s dime, and now the fossil fuel industry has been given free rein to pollute.”
