Pledge: Oil Industry Subsidies
The voting public nationally has stated its position on oil industry subsidies loud and clear. It wants them done away with immediately! So let’s go after the turncoat toadies who have been voting their pocketbooks and have opposed ending this horrific and wasteful giveaway of our tax dollars to corporations that already are awash in profits.
