DNC Considers Repealing Fossil Fuel Donation Ban After Only Two Months
BY: Alex Griswold
August 10, 2018 4:54 pmThe Democratic National Committee will hold a vote to repeal a ban on fossil fuel money only two months after it was first enacted.
In June, the DNC executive committee approved a resolution banning contributions from political action committees (PACs) that represent fossil fuel companies. Forwarded by Christine Pelosi, the daughter of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.), was an expansion of an earlier, broader resolution that banned contributions from companies opposed to the DNC mission.
"Fossil fuel corporations are drowning our democracy in a tidal wave of dark oily money; they have deceived the public about the impacts of climate change, fought the growth of clean renewable energy, and corrupted our political system," the resolution read.
