"Citizens’ Climate Lobby volunteers in Nebraska did just that. Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) accepted their invitation for a 1.5-mile hike through a restored prairie at the University of Nebraska Omaha’s Glacier Creek Preserve and invited other environmentalists to join them."

Today, I called on the President to address my serious concern regarding reports the United States is withholding critical defense material pledged to Ukraine. This comes as Russia launches the largest aerial assault since the war began, firing over 500 weapons at civilian targets in a single week.

Ukrainian forces are not only safeguarding their homeland—they are holding the front line of freedom itself. There can be no half-measures in the defense of liberty. We must, as we always have, stand for peace through strength.

I have formally requested an emergency briefing from the White House and the Department of Defense to clarify these reports, review our nation’s weapons and munitions stockpiles, and ensure the United States remains fully committed to providing Ukraine with the resources it urgently needs to defend its people and preserve the cause of freedom.

- 9 members have not voted.

Don has been a lifelong friend. I can imagine the dilemma he faces.

On one hand, he’s sick of the BS he’s being dealt daily. On the other hand, Bits doesn’t walk away from a problem that he believes he can fix. He never has. @DonJBacon https://t.co/KUU9dmaHov

And is State Farm doing anything to address climate change? No. It is just charging Americans more...

Why doesn't State Farm seem to care about the charging the actual polluters that are significant contributors to the stronger storms that cost more to actually insure?

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

Climate change costs money. It won't affect our wallets somewhere down the line or in the distant future - it's costing everyday Americans now ⬇️

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

this hearing lasted from 1 a.m. to 8:42 p.m.

I have to assume this is a record of sorts.

@RepGregMurphy You're right @RepGregMurphy @RepDonBacon others- pushing for #EnergyTaxCredits to remain.

These tax incentives have been in place for decades and renewables, battery, nuclear, carbon capture will all be needed to be energy independence & meet the energy demands of our future!

[Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. @RepGregMurphy]

As American energy needs markedly increase in the future, we will need an ‘all of the above’ energy approach. This includes fossil fuels but also renewables, especially nuclear. We must let the industries thrive.

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

Arizona @RepCiscomani says, “These tax credits have had an impact in my district — and on job creation, on investment, also national security."

He's absolutely right, and we're glad to see Rep. Ciscomani speaking up.

Official CBO analysis confirms the obvious: House Republican tax and budget bill isn't shared sacrifice.

It makes poor people poorer and rich people richer. It does this by cutting health care & nutrition to help finance tax cuts skewed to the wealthy.

[Kay Carne @KayCarne]

Thank you @RepDonBacon @DonJBacon

We appreciate you for your work to keep energy tax credits in place. Climate is a threat multiplier, making our entire world less safe and costing our military lives and $$$.

Thank you for working so hard for ALL of us in purple NE02!

[Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha @CCLomaha]

We appreciate @RepDonBacon for his leadership and work to protect long standing #EnergyTaxCredits!

Many in NE02 support and they are important incentives for Nebraska farmers, rural communities and our energy independence.

Thank you for truly representing Nebraska!

We are all human and make mistakes. What effective leaders do though is we take responsibility when we screw up, acknowledge it and learn from it. We don’t blame the journalist and deny wrongdoing. Leadership is about trust, character and being selfless.

I thank Kay from Omaha for her letter. The all of the above solution is the right approach to providing a balanced mix of clean & reliable energy. We don’t want to rely on energy imports from Russia & Venezuela. Omaha gets 40% of its energy from wind.

We appreciate these House Republicans for speaking up!

“The last thing any of us want to do is provoke an energy crisis or cause higher energy bills for working families,” they said.

These four Republican Senators signed and sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader John Thune this month in support of the Inflation Reduction Act's clean energy tax credits. They join the 21 House Republicans who signed onto a similar letter last month. #defendIRA

[Kay Carne @KayCarne]

@citizensclimate Thank you to NE02's maverick General @RepDonBacon for signing the letter to protect clean energy tax credits. Stay strong on this view - our energy independence, which is intertwined with national security, depends on moving wind, solar, nuclear and battery technology forward.
