The fossil fuel industry cares about one thing only, their profits. They are so short sighted they can’t even see that demand is cratering & asset value declining. The LA Times states the case perfectly latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

Editorial: Shame on California lawmakers for killing fossil fuel divestment bill again

Legislation to divest billions of dollars in pension funds for California public workers and teachers from fossil fuel companies failed again. But climate change isn't waiting.

Good to know, but what is Cong Pallone going to do to make it happen!? So much lung and heart disease from unfettered burning of fossil fuels in EJ communities. And premature death! People need healthcare now and an end to fossil fuels. #Medicare4All #TimeToDivest

Remembering 3 yrs ago today & how hard it was to get him on board. And now, in a recent speech at the Monmouth Dem convention, @FrankPallone rallied the crowd around #MedicareForAll. Like the end of the line, the time for guaranteed, single-payer, universal healthcare will come.
