A Closer Look at the RFK Jr.-Schneiderman Memo

New documents reveal controversial environmental activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sent a memo in January 2016 to former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman that argues for banning ExxonMobil from conducting business in the state of New York as a consequence for failing “to serve ‘the common good’” for allegedly misleading the public on the effects of climate change.

The memo advocates shutting down over 1,000 ExxonMobil gas stations across the state, which supply nearly a quarter of New York’s gasoline. Kennedy even told one reporter he “had numerous conversations with Schneiderman about it,” suggesting Kennedy believes the former attorney general may have seriously considered his proposal.
