Back in March, I asked Wells Fargo’s CEO about possible financial risks from its exposure to the oil and gas industry. These were his answers. ⬇️ https://t.co/VOrz7EwpY6 — PolitiTweet.org

Despite only being 3% of the bank’s outstanding commercial loans, oil and gas companies made up *47%* of the bank’s past-due commercial loans https://t.co/JJre9qR9PT https://t.co/ZGORE5ydoM — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, Wells Fargo posted its first loss since the financial crisis, losing $2.4 billion last quarter. One of the biggest factors was the loans the bank made to oil and gas companies. https://t.co/WaG1PTXJuG — PolitiTweet.org

My bill to reduce emissions and increase @DeptofDefense’s use of clean energy sources while maintaining military readiness is one of the easiest steps Congress can take to tackle the #ClimateCrisis and help ensure national security. Release⬇️ https://t.co/OWYNxGg9B9 — PolitiTweet.org

In 2015 the @DeptofDefense called #ClimateChange an “urgent and growing threat to our national security,” yet in 2019 the federal government consumed nearly 900 trillion mmbtu of energy and emitted nearly 37 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from standard operations. https://t.co/EA2W1vGiip — PolitiTweet.org

While climate change is an existential threat, #ClimateAction   is a win-win-win. By breaking down barriers to clean energy investment, incentivizing clean innovation, and denying tax-payer backed subsidies to polluters, we can lower emissions, save lives, and grow our economy. https://t.co/JSFqQgNOkT — PolitiTweet.org
