Tell our representatives: We want the truth about Exxon's climate record!

Rep. Chris Van Hollen, Rep. John Sarbanes, Rep. John Delaney, Sen. Barbara Mikulski, and Sen. Ben Cardin

The revelations are shocking - a new report by InsideClimate News and the LA Times shows that Exxon researchers had solid evidence of the risks to our climate from fossil fuels as far back as the 1970s. But instead of getting on board with moving our economy away from dirty energy sources, Exxon chose to suppress the data, while striving to publicly "emphasize the uncertainty," as one of their internal memos put it. By doing so, they helped hold back years of potential progress on climate. Did Exxon commit a crime by burying the truth about climate? Sign this petition and ask all of our elected federal officials in Montgomery County to support a full investigation of what Exxon knew and when they knew it. We need to hold Exxon responsible!

New allegations regarding Exxon's possible suppression of critical climate change research in the 1970s and 1980s are too important to ignore. We need to know what Exxon knew and when they knew it so they can be held responsible for their record of fostering misinformation and suppression of the science. We ask you to support a full federal investigation of Exxon's climate record. Only when all the truth comes out will we know the extent of Exxon's misdeeds and whether they violated the law.
