Two years ago Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act. Since then it has fast-charged a clean energy economy that lowers energy bills, spurs good-paying jobs, and ensures a more livable planet.
Last February, @GovTimWalz signed the 100% Clean Energy bill into law. His leadership "led to the biggest thing our state has ever done to address the climate crisis." Take a peak behind the scenes: https://t.co/3hyIbMOwjX
We are excited by the prospect of working alongside her historic administration to reduce climate pollution and ensure prosperity for all who call MN home.
Congrats @GovTimWalz ! The Walz administration has done more to address climate change than any Governor in MN history, securing landmark legislative victories to improve the air we breathe & the water we drink.
If the Harris/Walz ticket is successful in their bid for the White House, @LtGovFlanagan could make state history by becoming the first woman and Native American to hold the office. Lt. Governor Flanagan is a strong advocate for the people and places of MN.
Happy Earth Day🌎
Climate change threatens many of the things we love most about our state – which is why we signed over 40 climate initiatives into law last year.
If you’re looking for a state that’s leading on climate, then come on over to Minnesota.

On Wednesday night, our family of organizations received the John Hunting Environment Award at @LCVoters annual awards dinner. We're honored for the acknowledgment of our hard work to fight climate change and make Minnesota the best place to live!
Right now, Minnesota is showing the country you don't win elections to bank political capital – you win elections to burn political capital and improve lives.
Supporting those who prioritize protecting our Great Outdoors matters. Thanks to #mnleg we now have 100% Clean Energy by 2040, lead pipe replacement plans, PFAS bans, Clean Water by 2050, solar for schools, EV rebates, grants & infrastructure plans, and so much more.
Thanks to groups like @LCVoters, Democrats in Congress passed the most significant climate legislation in American history.
This victory shows us how powerful a grassroots movement can be, and motivates us to continue to organize and push climate to the front of our agenda.
