To: Rick Perry, Secretary of Energy
Tell Rick Perry: You Must Resign For Your Twisted Remarks
Your comments suggesting that expanding fossil fuel development will decrease incidents of sexual assault are twisted and blatantly untrue. It is an inexcusable attempt to minimize a serious and pervasive issue.
Women, and particularly women of color, are among some of the most severely impacted by the climate crisis, and it is these same communities that are most at risk of sexual assault. Your attempt to exploit this struggle to justify further dangerous fossil fuel development is unacceptable. Before you cause any more damage, please resign immediately.
