  • Feb.13.2018: Time To Wake Up: National Association of Manufacturers. The effect of corporate America allowing its trade groups to be captured by fossil fuel interests is that corporate America is now ... collectively united against climate action in Congress. Say whatever they say on their websites; do whatever they do within their fence lines or their supply chains; sign whatever they sign by way of letters and advertisements; that is all good, but when it comes to Congress, where the lawmaking rubber hits the road, corporate America is collectively united against climate action, either through direct antagonism like the fossil fuel industry or by letting antagonists like the National Association of Manufacturers and the chamber be their lobbying intermediaries and erase their good climate policies by the time they get to Congress and replace them with the fossil fuel industry’s climate denial or by simply ducking the fight and not showing up on game day. US Senator for Rhode Island, Sheldon Whitehouse.
