🚨 Yesterday in Michigan's primary elections, 9 out of our 10 top priority candidates advanced from the primary! 🎊
When you run on climate policy, keeping those promises, and WINNING shows that voters want bold climate action to succeed 🧵
Great time door-knocking with #ClimateSlate champion Rep. Kimberly Edwards in MI! Our state lead Marta Johnson says Rep. Edwards has a 'spine of steel' when it comes to standing up for what is right - clean air, affordable energy bills, and more reliable access to electricity
Checking back into Twitter to share:
I got messaged today about a growing local group staring to organize around separated and protected bike lanes in Grand Rapids, Mi!!
Already getting pumped to mobilize families to push for the necessary investments for biking! #BikeBus
Air quality is having a moment right now!
It came up at my 4th of July BBQ. People seem genuinely sad about their kids not able to go outside because of worsening wild fire & other pollution.
Anyone else seeing an uptick of people talking about this?
Learning that postal workers aren’t given masks or encouraged to take breaks on these air quality action days has me smdh. What are we doing?!
Thankful my letter carrier knows I’m a resource and can share masks with them.
@pete_posey@GovWhitmer @SpeakerJoeTate @WinnieBrinks No! But now I’m going to check it out. It’s so sad that this could be the least smoky and coolest summer for our kids — we need more leaders to get fully into gear with solutions.
I believe our trifecta is more than up for the challenge!
But we need to see them flex on this.
Great job getting the budget over the finish line, for real! 👏 👏 👏
It’s time to treat climate change & air quality like the emergency it is.
Mich. kids deserve clean air & a bright future. Fire up the trifecta to get it done, pls!
@GovWhitmer @SpeakerJoeTate @WinnieBrinks
Smokey hazy #GrandRapids
If lawmakers don’t act quickly on #AirQuality and #ClimateChange, our kids are guaranteed to have more of these kinds of days.
@pcprincess83 @Jimi_Stella@440NeverTweets Nope! Not my goal.
But I do want to clearly refute argument that you keep claiming. There’s no evidence of arson and if there were, it would be easily accessible in the news. It’s simply misinformation.
Enjoy your day, Lori. ✌🏽
@vladimirlesbian@MichiganEGLE@jonathanoosting Not all hvac systems can accommodate merv-13 filters, so hepa filters are a good thing to raise awareness of and encourage folks to add to their homes.
I’m so curious to see what ER/hospitalization data looks like during and after these air quality action days.
Pollution has a price, and it’s our health.
