Senator Whitehouse's Budget Committee Drops Video Exposing Big Oil's Decades-Long Deception Campaign
May 6, 2024
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, releases a video with Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, entitled, “Denial, Disinformation, and Doublespeak: Big Oil’s Evolving Efforts to Avoid Accountability for Climate Change.”
The video follows the release of a joint staff report produced by the Budget Committee and House Committee on Oversight and Accountability as part of a multi-year investigation and the unveiling of new documents that expose the fossil fuel industry’s role in spreading climate disinformation and preventing action on climate change.
