Rallies to support climate action are taking place across the state today! We're with partners at the #RGGI Richmond rally as the VA Air Pollution Control Board meets inside.

⚠️@GovernorVA has no authority to overrule the General Assembly by removing VA from #RGGI!

[Virginia LCV @VirginiaLCV]

We're live with @JennMcClellanVA, Delegate Schuyler VanValkenburg, Eileen Woll of @vasierraclub, and Virginia LCV Policy Director, Chris Leyen, discussing the benefits of the Virginia Clean Economy Act.
Tune in now! ⬇️ https://t.co/yKRH4C3eul

We're at the VADEQ Air Pollution Control Board meeting with @AppVoices, @vasierraclub, @CCAN, @VAIPL, @VCNVAorg, and Richmond People's Climate Movement to say loud and clear to @GovernorVA to stop attacking climate action, and that #RGGI works! (1/2)

McKenna Dunbar from @vasierraclub: "Youngkin’s administration has failed to account for how Virginia’s electric grid functions. Seeing as the state is part of the regional grid run by PJM, RGGI costs on power generators make it more expensive to run carbon (1/2)

Virginia LCV's own Lauren Alexander says "Governor Youngkin lacks the authority to undo or reverse laws passed by the General Assembly, including our membership in #RGGI!"

Congressional Democrats know this is a do-or-die moment for our planet and are fighting for #ClimateActionNow.

If we can have a federal holiday to celebrate presidents, we can have one to elect them too.

We may sometimes feel that we can't do much as individuals, but humanity is made up of individuals; together we can make a difference. As individuals we can influence our own families. Our families can influence our communities and our communities can influence our nations.

Today, on Superbowl Sunday, don't forget that for *years* the NFL has systematically villainized Colin Kaepernick beccause he dared to protest racial injustice, police brutality, and anti-Blackness.

How does it happen that SoFI, a student loan re-financing company, could spend $625 million to put its name on the LA Rams football stadium when 45 million Americans are drowning in $1.8 trillion in student debt? Today would be a good day for the President to cancel student debt.

The climate crisis isn't going to be addressed through platitudes and empty words. We need tangible action — like passing Build Back Better's climate provisions — and we need it now.

Why the hell is it “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts”?
