It’s a plan as ill-conceived as it is dangerous — and it’s already becoming clear U.S. taxpayers are likely to be left holding the bag. While Secretary of State Rubio initially claimed that their plan for Venezuela’s oil is “not going to cost us anything,” experts estimate that building up Venezuelan oil infrastructure could cost $115 BILLION. Now, Trump is suggesting that taxpayers’ dollars could be used to reimburse oil companies for the “tremendous amount of money” required to invest in Venezuela. While prices skyrocket at home, taxpayers should NOT be on the hook for oil companies in Trump’s lawless plan to pillage Venezuela’s oil. Fortunately, Rep. Mike Levin and Sen. Jeff Merkley just introduced legislation to prevent that from happening — and we need everyone in Congress to add their urgent support. We demand funding for healthcare, not war for oil, and we need to come out in full force immediately to ensure Congress rejects the use of taxpayer dollars to subsidize Big Oil by passing this bill. Add your name and tell Congress: No Taxpayer Dollars for Big Oil! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/no-taxpayer-dollars-for-big-oil-2
