Far-right fossil fuel company allies pressure US supreme court to shield firms in unprecedented campaign | Oil and gas companies | The Guardian
Leonard Leo, Charles Koch and other right-wing extremist billionaires, organizations and corporate interests are attempting to halt litigation by various states against the destructive, corrupt fossil fuel companies.
It's outrageous these so-called 'conservative' elites and entities are standing in the way of holding fossil fuel industry accountable for their unsafe, destructive products by pressuring the Supreme Court to rule against the states filing litigation.
These hypocrites shout "States Rights" only when in its in their favor.

Political System Controlled by Billionaires and Corporations
Press Release
The Progressive Party today renewed the call for overturning the Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United, a decision which opened the floodgates to unlimited campaign spending by corporations and wealthy individuals.
“It is a national disgrace that billionaires and other extremely wealthy people are able to heavily influence the political process by making huge contributions. The Koch brothers alone will spend more than the Democratic and Republican parties to influence the outcome of next year’s elections. That’s not democracy, that’s oligarchy,” Sanders said. Elections should not be bought, they should be determined by who has the best ideas, who is the better candidate and not who can hustle the most money from the rich and powerful. American democracy means one person one vote, not billionaires buying elections. Unless we end this disastrous campaign finance system, our government will continue to represent the interests of the few at the expense of the many. The Progressive Party does not want help from any Super PACs and is sponsoring a constitutional amendment to undo the disastrous Citizens United ruling. The Progressive Party is supported almost entirely by small contributions that average about $37 apiece. As the deadline approached, the Progressive Party made an appeal for new supporters to register their backing by making a simple $3 donation.

Bullets are the leading cause of death among our nation’s children. But no Republican will take on the issue because they know the firearms industry and its front groups will destroy them with a waterfall of money for their inevitable opponent in the next election.
