[ReImagine Appalachia @newdeal4us]

Across Appalachia, and across the US, massive surface coal mines are not getting cleaned up, which increases flooding. This is a national problem that needs national solutions. Thanks @RepCartwright for leading on two new bills to help #StopZombieMines and ensure #MineCleanup

[River Valley Organizing @RiverValleyOrg]

👀 on you @EPA @OhioEPA

[Center for International Environmental Law @ciel_tweets]

New @EPA rule will slash emissions from 200 of the largest #petrochemical polluters in the US!

The rule will reduce more than 6,200 tons of toxic air pollution – a huge win for clean air & frontline communities >> https://t.co/kKKmI1YAKm

👀 on @EPA to make sure it’s enforced.

[Governor Mike DeWine @GovMikeDeWine]

Ohio law today dictates that every student must have a plan on how they will meet their graduation requirements. Yet, the law fails to require the most important thing -- a plan for students to find a career they love and can excel at after graduation.

Every Ohio student needs a graduation plan that includes how they meet their course requirements, what they want to do post-graduation, and how they intend to pay for it.

Today, I’m asking the Legislature to make a very simple fix in statute to insert career planning into existing graduation plan requirements so that every Ohio student leaves school on a career pathway. #OhioSOTS24

[U.S. EPA @EPA]

Safe drinking water is fundamental to healthy people and thriving communities. EPA is establishing the first-ever, nationwide, legally enforceable drinking water standards to protect communities from #PFAS, known as #ForeverChemicals.

East Palestine & impacted communities deserve :
💨 Ongoing third-party environmental monitoring
💲 for long-term impacts
🏡 A safe place to call home
⚖️ JUSTICE

We need regulations that prevent chemical disasters BEFORE they happen, starting with an @EPA ban of #VinylChloride.

The fossil fuel industry values profits over people #endfossilfuels #peopleoverprofit #wedeservebetter

[Allie R @allieeerose.bsky.social @allieeerose]

People impacted by the fossil fuel industry are marching to #CERAWeek to demand justice for their communities. #EndFossilFuels

“Short term purchases like groceries and vacations”…
Imagine if food were a luxury and not a necessity
#peopleoverprofit #wedeservebetter

[jessica nicole @deepwithfuture]

They used to call groceries "necessities."

Watch these subtle shifts in language. They just put FOOD on the same level as vacation.
