Let us know if this adds up to you, Pamela:
Trump goes to war on the taxpayers’ dime. Gas prices spike. YOU pay the price. Big Oil rakes in billions.
It shouldn’t. But Big Oil made a killing in the first quarter of 2026: 27 companies raked in more than $40 billion in profit. That’s a 21% jump from the previous quarter.
In 2024, Trump made an offer to Oil & Gas executives at a closed-door meeting during his campaign: Raising $1 billion to return him to the White House would be a “deal” because of the “taxation and regulation” they would save thanks to him. Now, they’re on track for a $60 billion windfall.
Meanwhile, Americans have spent $40 billion more on fuel since this war began, $290 more than average out of every household’s budget.
We still have power, so here’s how we’re fighting back: Climate Power is rolling out resources across the country to hold Big Oil and the politicians that back them accountable for war profiteering & price gouging Americans at the pump.

Trump promised to lower costs. He lied.
And Big Oil’s rich CEOs who bankrolled his campaign are laughing all the way to the bank while working families pay more for gas, groceries, and utility bills.
But the midterms are coming, and that’s our shot. Every House seat is on the ballot, and key Senate races could determine whether we can free ourselves from Big Oil’s grip on Washington. We must elect leaders who stand up to corporate polluters, lower costs for working families, and protect our climate progress.
The Oil and Gas industry is making mind-boggling profits: $30 million per hour off your hard work. Let’s make them pay the price for it.
We know times are tight. That’s what this fight is about.
If you’re stretched thin right now -- if $10, $25, or $50 feel like too much when gas is eating your budget alive -- we understand.
But if you’re able to chip in even a few dollars today, we can hold Big Oil and lawmakers accountable for this crisis and power our work across the country.
