Pure joy in Scranton PA as 2000+ show up for #NoKingsDay. #HandsOff our democracy. #HandsOff Medicare and Medicaid. Tax the Big Oil billionaires. No human is
What a historic day! We are so proud to have supported @savethebwca’s work to protect the Boundary Waters from toxic mining.
Thank you @POTUS and @SecDebHaaland for taking a major step in preserving this special place. #savethebwca
I will vote against the rule for NDAA consideration if it includes giveaways to the fossil fuel industry. If even 10 House progressives vote against it, it likely can’t pass.
We all have a stake in tackling the climate crisis & it's critical we listen to communities hit hardest.
WTF? The company that wants to build the Mountain Valley Pipeline just had a massive leak at a methane storage hub.

Here's a memo from @StopBigOil on Democrats were able to play offense around high gas prices by taking on Big Oil's greed.
The lesson: fight Big Oil, win big.

Big Oil’s scheme is clear- they will attack Democrats, scare them, and try to weaken climate action. Climate advocates can’t stay silent about fossil fuels- if we do they win the narrative. Time for everyone to pile on and #BlameBigOil.
Big Oil’s scheme:
1. Make over $100 billion gouging consumers
2. Blame Biden for the high prices
3. Use money to help elect Republicans
4. Undermine clean energy agenda to keep us addicted to their product https://t.co/NpaM1FznS5
Rarely do congressional statements make me cry, but this one got me.... @RepRaulGrijalva saw through this from day one- so grateful for his leadership!
@CartwrightPA Northeast PA does not need more polluting industries in our community. Landfills, fracking waste, power plants, and now this? @RepCartwright- you know this is an environmental justice community- bring us the clean energy factories, not more public health threats.
This is a *HUGE* freaking deal: Congress has obtained documents that show Big Oil companies actively lying about their climate commitments and coordinating to downplay their support for the Paris Agreement.
That's fraud.
A quick 🧵

.@SenMarkey tells me: “I'm going to finish this bill, take a nap, and then begin the fight to complete the Green New Deal and create a Civilian Climate Corps.”
