March 16, 2020 Joe Biden Just Betrayed America’s Oil and Gas Workers

In last night’s debate, Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders confirmed they are just two sides of the same extreme coin.

Biden previously said he would "sacrifice" hundreds of thousands of blue-collar jobs and paychecks in pursuit of the Green New Deal agenda. Last night he lifted the veil on his extreme agenda even further, pledging in no uncertain terms to knife America's energy workers in the back - and decimate fracking jobs in particular.

Biden’s fracking ban would jeopardize over 7 million jobs across America, disproportionately hurting workers in states that Biden claims he can win, including Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Minnesota, Colorado, and Ohio. It would also spike American families' energy bills by thousands of dollars every year.

Other Democrats have repeatedly sounded the alarm about the risk of Joe Biden's radicalism:

Just last month, moderate Democrats panicked over the radical presidential field's shift to the left on energy were desperately insisting that Joe Biden had "explicitly promised" not to ban fracking.

Joe Biden broke that promise, to them and to millions of America's oil and gas workers. There's nothing moderate about Joe Biden, and moderate Democrats hoping to avoid a crushing defeat in November will be better off accepting that fact sooner than later.
