Vital investments and climate protections are at risk of being repealed. Rollbacks could threaten over 200,000 lives, along with millions of good-paying jobs created by clean energy. Stand firm for a healthier, safer future. #standstrongforclimate

Cuts to climate protections would put 200,000+ lives at risk and millions of jobs being created by clean energy investments. The lame-duck Congress must #StandStrongforClimate and reject cuts to clean energy investments, climate protections, and climate agencies.
Extreme heat fueled by climate change puts 36 million workers in the US in danger. A new OSHA rule would help protect workers from the impact of working in excessive heat: illness, injury, even death. Tell OSHA that human health > profit

Thank you, Lansing, for showing up to support climate action and clean energy investments at today's stop on our Clean Energy REVolution Tour. Now let’s keep #DrivingClimateProgress to ensure federal clean energy investments reach every corner of our nation. #hotRVsummer ⚡️🚎
Two years ago, @POTUS signed into law the biggest climate investment in history and it’s working – cutting climate pollution, creating jobs, improving public health and turbocharging the clean energy economy. Let’s build on these accomplishments! #ClimateWinsHere

As #ExtremeWeatherSZN continues and #wildfires continue to burn, more people will be left homeless and displaced, often without the financial means to move on. We need to give @FEMA the resources it needs to help people.

What if we named extreme weather events after the corporations whose pollution is a catalyst for climate change? We are asking the @NHC_Atlantic to do just that!
Sign the petition in our bio to ask for corporate accountaibility! #DefendOurClimate
Join us this Wednesday from 4PM to 6PM to use leaves and flowers as stamps to paint tote bags, t shirts, etc!
We encourage everyone to bring their own items to upcycle! We will provide a limited number of canvas tote bags as well.
The measures announced today by the @WhiteHouse would provide much needed support for workers and communities that are already being devastated by the consequences of extreme weather events. Let's continue to #DefendOurClimate and defend community health!
