Shot/Chaser: Democrats’ HR1 vs Republicans’ HR1

Mar 14, 2023

House Republicans are set to formally unveil their signature legislative priority, H.R.1, a series of subsidies for fossil fuel companies. Speaker McCarthy’s top bill would be yet another Republican handout to their Big Oil & Gas donors at the expense of the planet.

Shot: In 2021, when House Democrats were in charge, their signature priority was passing the For the People Act, which would end dark money, crack down on political corruption, protect the freedom to vote, and ensure voters have a voice in our democracy.

Chaser: In 2023, House Republicans are attempting to give their corporate Big Oil & Gas donors a handout—even at the risk of exacerbating our current climate crisis.
