@ChrisVanHollen, please join @SenJeffMerkley @SenBooker @SenDuckworth in calling for a separate vote on Manchin's side deal.

Do not allow fast-tracking for fossil fuels, #MVP, and attacks on NEPA/CWA to be forced through in a must-pass measure!

@DelawareWFP We're disappointed to see JPMorgan on that list. For those who don't know, "In the years since the Paris Climate Agreement, Chase has been the world’s largest banker of fossil fuels, pouring more than $316 billion into the fossil fuel industry from 2016 to 2020." - Sierra Club.

We love Rep. Wilson-Anton, you can help her get reelected here: https://t.co/wmbkIU2GNu

[Madinah Wilson-Anton @MadinahForDE]

Thank you for this amazing honor ♥️ I’m excited to continue working for environmental justice w/ @GreenAmendments when session resumes in 2023 💚

[Dr. John B. King, Jr. @JohnBKing]

We need a #GreenNewDeal for Maryland. Our state is one of the most vulnerable spots in the country to climate change, but no other candidate supports the bold action we must take to fight this crisis. Help me get to 50k by RTing & following so we can make the case for a #GND4MD.

[Delaware Working Families Party @DelawareWFP]

Today is Rep. John Kowalko's last day in office. He helped create Delaware WFP in its first form over 10 years ago and has been a tireless voice for change in Delaware. We wish him great luck in his retirement.

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

We aren't going to wait for anyone to save us, we are going to take action now. We will win because we are building up the power of the people.

Join us tonight at 8:30 pm ET to talk about what it means for the climate and our movement https://t.co/Ld5ZQYBynr

[Sunrise in Newark @UDSunrise]

Rally for the planet next Thursday, June 9th, on the steps of the legislative hall in Dover.

RSVP: https://t.co/fm8pG4U9Mk

[Delaware Sierra Club @desierraclub]

We cannot afford to wait another year before we take bold action to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and put our state on a path towards net-zero emissions. On 6/9, we will be taking to the stairs outside Legislative Hall to demand #climateaction in 2022. Will you join us?

[Anthony @anthonyymchan]

We protested @POTUS and fellow #BlueHen @JoeBiden at our #UDGrad22 commencement today, urging him to formally declare a climate emergency. He pointed back at us in a gesture of acknowledgement, so we'll see if he follows through.

[Delaware Working Families Party @DelawareWFP]

As the Supreme Court tries to drag us backwards, we have the opportunity to make reproductive health care more accessible in Delaware. Contact your legislators to let them know that you support HB400: https://t.co/xGUmhzAUXR

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

The wealthy few manufactured a society that was dependent on cars & fossil fuels.

They made sure we were all reliant on them & that public transportation would be shitty. Now, they're raising gas prices to make a profit off of us.

Gazprom, Russia's largest oil and gas company, is now using its leverage against Poland. And @Chase was the top banker to Gazprom with more than $4.6 billion in financing since 2016. https://t.co/WRVeaNzXmo https://t.co/lqIXI2hpF6 https://t.co/WPA71UOGcf
