Several lawmakers including Senators Whitehouse, Markey, and Schumer, along with Representatives Raskin and Barragan, are launching investigations and demanding action against Big Oil companies for alleged collusion, price manipulation, and obstructing climate action. They aim to address concerns of increased gas prices, harm to public health, and the environment.
Big Oil’s collusion w/OPEC not only harms American’s wallets, but our public health and climate. Proud to join @SenSchumer, @EdMarkey, @RepJoeNeguse, & @RepKamlagerDove to call out this corruption & fight to give Americans access to affordable clean energy & clean air. https://t.co/0kuQzgsGfm

Schumer piles on as Dems up attacks on Big Oil. Says he’ll send a letter to DOJ next week asking it to investigate and prosecute “collusion and price fixing” that “may have increased gasoline and energy costs” https://t.co/iGkkLmFkmr
I'm live at the Capitol with @SenSchumer, @ClimatePower, and my colleagues to demand an end to Big Oil and its dirty energy price gouging. It's time for a clean energy revolution. https://t.co/ei4FkjS2OY
Today I'm launching an investigation into oil companies potentially colluding to drive up gas prices for their own gain. If oil companies are colluding to manipulate prices and force Americans to pay more at the pump, the American people deserve to know. https://t.co/XKRMXbVlAu
