Working with grassroots activists, my friend Mark Ruffalo has helped lead the effort against corporate interests to ban fracking in state after state to protect our water, air and climate. Now Congress must act. I am proud to lead the first-ever federal ban on fracking with Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The future of our planet is more important than the profits of the fossil fuel CEOs. | U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders
