Here are all the companies we know have left the @USChamber at least in part over its climate denial and obstruction (it’s tied for worst climate obstructor in America):
@Apple, @PGE4Me, @PNMtalk, @eBay, @HP, @GeneralMills, @GoldmanSachs, @KelloggsUS, @KraftHeinzCo, @MarsGlobal, @Mattel, @McDonalds, @MDLZ, @Nestle, @Starbucks, @Unilever, @Walgreens Boots Alliance, Costco.
Total market cap? More than $2.2 TRILLION.
Which raises the question: what forces are at work that makes the @USChamber willing to lose such members, to cling to climate denial and obstruction? I suspect a flood of undisclosed fossil fuel money; that they got bought.

Follow the money.
@USChamber should fess up; board members should demand answers; seems like a real governance issue.

What if @USChamber knowingly lied and obstructed, and did so because of fossil fuel money (lawyers: check civil RICO); and its board members never even inquired how their organization was funded? (Lawyers: check the E&O.)
