There are huge red flags at the Department of the Interior that you need to know about.

For starters, Trump’s nomination for Secretary of the Interior is Dave Bernhardt. This guy is a former fossil fuel lobbyist best known for two things: Having dozens of conflicts of interests with the oil and gas industry, and expanding oil drilling on public lands while working under his predecessor Ryan Zinke — who, by the way, resigned amid a corruption investigation.

While the government was closed during the shutdown, Trump raised red flags by letting Bernhardt keep staff on board to continue issuing leases to oil companies to drill on federal lands and in our oceans.

Folks, there are A LOT of open questions about Dave Bernhardt’s connections to fossil fuel fuel industry.

That’s why I’m on calling Trump and Bernhardt to halt ALL fossil fuel land leasing until we get answers about possible conflicts of interest. Can you add your name to my urgent petition today?

We can’t let this Administration threaten our public lands and natural resources to benefit the fossil fuel industry — too much is at stake.

I’m fighting to get answers from Trump and Dave Bernhardt. But I can’t do this without your support:

Join me: Call on Trump to end fossil fuel leases in our oceans and public lands immediately. We need answers.

Thank you,

TJ Cox SIGN THE PETITION
