Great piece from @nyt's on things individuals can do to fight #ClimateChange. If we could add one more: Engage your members of Congress to enact solutions — carbon pricing, permitting reform, healthy forests — that have a broad impact.

Good to see bipartisan climate legislation reintroduced in the Senate this week!

"The RISEE Act would establish a much-needed source of funding from offshore #wind development to protect our shorelines," said CCL's Ben Pendergrass.

The biggest sporting event on Earth, the #WorldCup, had to be moved to November because of deadly heat in Qatar. Plus, the $220 billion spent on facilities for the event were paid for by fossil fuels that exacerbate #ClimateChange.

We're not done yet with climate action! Ask your rep to cosponsor the RISEE, which gives states the incentive to site offshore wind and creates funding to help coastal communities hurt by #ClimateChange.

Another big story from yesterday: Boston joins list of other cities to electrify all new buildings. Combined with incentives in #InflationReductionAct, this is the kind of effort that will help US meet emissions goal.

With #InflationReductionAct, big climate legislation is now law. It happened, in great part, because of grassroots political will, which CCL provided.

Read the saga of how this miracle happened & CCL's role in this wild roller coaster ride!

More on signing of the #InflationReductionAct:

“With unwavering conviction, commitment, and patience, progress does come. And when it does, like today, people’s lives are made better and the future becomes brighter and a nation can be transformed.”

The first step in getting more #ActionOnClimate is to thank lawmakers for the action they've already taken. If your members of Congress voted for the #InflationReductionAct, take a few minutes to express your gratitude.

Carbon tax next? CCL's @dana1981:

"This is the first time the federal government has put a fee on a climate pollutant, and it's an acknowledgment that making polluters pay for greenhouse gas emissions is a good idea."

Our statement on passage of historic climate legislation:

"CCL is thrilled to see, for the first time, the U.S. Congress taking action that reflects the scale of the climate problem."

WE DID IT! The House has passed the #InflationReductionAct, sending it to President Biden for his signature. This is a historic moment for action on #ClimateChange, and CCL will work to ensure that there is more to come.

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

Love this story from NPR's @LEBenshoff telling people how they'll get paid to fight #ClimateChange, thanks to the #InflationReductionAct.

It's time to make some history on #ClimateChange! The House has opened debate leading to a vote on the #InflationReductionAct. You can follow along on C-SPAN.
