Invoking the God Squad to exempt Gulf oil and gas drilling from the Endangered Species Act puts fewer than 100 Rice's whales and five sea turtle species on a path to extinction — all to pad Big Oil's profits. The BP Deepwater Horizon spill already wiped out 17 percent of the Rice's whale population, and expanding drilling only deepens that threat. Handing wealthy corporations a free pass to destroy irreplaceable wildlife isn't energy policy — it's a sellout of America's natural heritage.
