Both just posted record profits in the middle of inflation.
This is exactly why we need a minimum 15% corporate income tax. Tax the price-gougers. Pass the Inflation Reduction Act.https://t.co/Uqy38W7EQR

Record profits at @exxonmobil and @Chevron, but they definitely weren't gouging us at the pump, right? Give me a break.https://t.co/Z7jIhaD2Qx

It’s time for our tax code to reward working families — not oil execs getting rich from record profits and buying back stock. Next week I’ll be introducing my legislation to ensure these corporations start paying their fair share. https://t.co/U2BN5t0UIk

Three big oil companies made over $40 BILLION in profits last quarter. Tell me again how Americans aren't being price gouged at the pump? Outrageous!https://t.co/qk6jnwdf5n

💸Big Oil greed is leading to skyrocketing prices at the pump. They aren’t trying to lower gasoline prices for everyday people, they’re trying to maximize profits for their CEOs and wealthy shareholders. https://t.co/V966ZrmEaH

Think high gas prices are Biden's fault?? Think again. Big oil reports record profits, double and triple what they were a year ago. This is bullshit. Levy a windfall profits tax NOW!
