Tell Rep. Jim Costa: End Big Oil Handouts
The Issue
BP recently announced that its third-quarter profits more than doubled – earning nearly $5 billion during the last three months. Other big oil companies announced that they have also raked in obscene profits this year. Yet somehow, these oil giants continue to receive billions in taxpayer-funded giveaways each year.
When Representative Costa has been given the opportunity to cut Big Oil handouts, he repeatedly sides with the oil companies -- voting to allow them to continue receiving massive government handouts.
Tell Rep. Costa today that there should be no more handouts for Big Oil and to support any effort to cut Big Oil’s taxpayer-funded subsidies.
