Another great editorial from @latimes:
"Lawmakers must find a way to pass key climate provisions from Biden’s all-but-dead Build Back Better Act, including renewable energy incentives for wind and solar and electric vehicle tax credits..."

Great piece from CEO @viktantry about the hidden subsidy polluters receive — to the tune of $5.9 trillion annually worldwide — by not being accountable for the damage they cause. A #PriceOnCarbon would eliminate that subsidy.

@RepDebDingell can you join cosponsors of the EICDA HR 2307, which include 46 members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus (including the chair), a majority of the leadership of the Congressional Black Caucus Michigan, and Michigan MOCs Levin, Killdee, and Lawrence?
Thanks @RepDebDingell for your leadership!
I agree with your statement, "Properly implemented, market-based solutions like putting a price on carbon have the potential to effectively address climate change and curb pollution while increasing economic efficiency" #PriceOnCarbon
New @NatureClimate study finds that a carbon fee & dividend policy (ala @citizensclimate) would lift 1.6 million Americans out of poverty by 2030, and have even bigger poverty-alleviating benefits in China & India.

The United States has tackled global challenges and achieved great things – we can do the same on climate. It’s time for us to take the lead and pass #BuildBackBetter with even stronger climate provisions.
With #BuildBackBetter, we have a unique opportunity to take bold action to address the climate crisis. We cannot afford to miss it. The lives of our children and grandchildren hang in the balance.
Thank you for your leadership on climate @SenStabenow and @SenGaryPeters! Let’s make sure we can meet the 50% reduction by 2030 goal by putting a #PriceOnCarbon!
It’s the key to achieving that goal, as studies like https://t.co/zFXJGkJGjp show.

.@SenWhitehouse on the push to enact #ClimateChange legislation:
"At the end of the day, my goal is to ensure that our combined plan includes a real #PriceOnCarbon that will really drive down carbon emissions and set a standard for America to lead the world..."
