After failed bid to crack down on price gougers last year, #Schumer, #Klobuchar, #Warren, #Sanders want new probe of huge #Exxon & #Chevron oil deals that could lead to higher gas prices, harm to operators, and depress wages.
Exxon's & Chevron's vertically integrated operations may harm smaller competitors. Both announced huge profits from strong energy prices since #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine. The oil deals could supercharge both companies' outsized political power.
Sen. Amy #Klobuchar (D-MN) said #Senate#Democrats have concluded that #uninterrupted#aid to #Ukraine is their top goal, adding that aid negotiations will be saved for a supplemental request.
“I believe there’s a bunch of #Republicans who are w/ Ukraine. The big test … is going to be what happens w/the supplemental & what happens in the next few weeks,” she said.
#US Senator #TammyBaldwin has introduced a new bill called the "Northern Great Lakes Wolf Recovery Act," which aims to expand the definition of #Minnesota 's #wolf population to include wolves in Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This proposed expansion would result in #Wisconsin 's #GrayWolves losing their #EndangeredSpecies status.
We want to be clear that this proposed bill is backhanded and undermines the tireless efforts aimed at ensuring the protection of #GrayWolves in the #UpperMidwest. Click the button below to sign a letter demanding that Senators #Baldwin and #Klobuchar withdraw this bill. Please share this message and spread awareness about its harmful implications.
