      ...Despite polling that shows over 80 percent of Americans favor

      Coal, identity-scrubbing groups like Donors Trust and Donors
      Capital, and their allies – developed and executed a massive
      campaign to deceive the public about climate change to halt
      climate action and protect their bottom lines....As part of their
      effort to draw attention to the web of denial, Senators
      Whitehouse, Markey, Schatz, Boxer, Merkley, Warren, Sanders, and
      Franken are introducing a resolution describing and condemning the
      efforts of corporations and groups to mislead the public about the
      harmful effects of tobacco, lead, and climate.  The resolution
      also urges fossil fuel corporations and their allies to cooperate
      with investigations into their climate-related activities. 
      Congressman Ted Lieu (D-CA) is introducing the resolution in the
