Exxon CEO for Secretary of State?

Update: Donald Trump has reportedly chosen ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson for Secretary of State.

This is tantamount to putting the world's largest oil company in charge of America's foreign policy. If Exxon takes control of the State Department, they can undo all the climate progress we've made at the international level.

Rex Tillerson, CEO of ExxonMobil

But before Tillerson takes over the State Department, he'll need to be confirmed by the Senate. We plan to turn his confirmation hearings into a full-scale investigation of Exxon's decades of climate deception. He'll be under oath in front of the whole Senate. Exxon's coverup is potentially the biggest corporate crime ever, and we'll make sure that Senators are asking every single question possible about Exxon's deception and Tillerson's participation in it.
