Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Sanders Criticizes Clinton’s Stance on Fossil Fuels

HeadlineJun 03, 2016

Meanwhile, speaking in Modesto, California, Clinton’s Democratic rival, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, said he was the best candidate to defeat Trump. Sanders also took aim at Clinton’s policies on climate change.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: “Of course she recognizes the reality of climate change. But I want her to join me in supporting a tax on carbon. I want her to change her views on the very important issue of fracking. She supports fracking. She wants to regulate fracking, but there are people who think you really, by definition, cannot effectively regulate fracking. And when she was secretary of state, she pushed the fracking technology on countries all over the world.”
