Saw someone pushing a treadmill down the street. Looks like the machines already got us doing their work for them.

The art of the deal:

pay billions of dollars to take offshore wind farms offline

then pay hundreds of millions of more to prop up coal plants

Does anyone else regularly lose cell service on the green line northbound around Mt Vernon Sq? Used to happen in the northbound tunnel between U St and Columbia Heights every time but that stopped a while ago. Takes a few stops to come back. Frustrating! @wmataGM @wmata @PoPville

The position of Congressional Republicans, who threatened to do permanent damage to the economy by forcing a default if they didn’t get enough policy demands, is that it’s unacceptable hostage taking for Democrats to insist the budget not allow the president to institute cuts.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Trump in 2013 on how to avoid a shutdown: “You have to get everyone in a room. You have to be a leader.”

Trump today: Cancels meeting with Democratic Leaders.

[League of Conservation Voters 🌎 @LCVoters]

GOP Plan: continue MAGA’s catastrophic price increases, attacks on democratic norms and cuts to water and air quality testing.

Dem plan: Negotiate to help US not billionaires.

Support the latter? Call your representatives and tell them to pass a fair funding bill.

The EPA has literally one job: protecting human health and the environment.

Instead, they declared climate change is not a threat and want to eliminate basic vehicle pollution limits.

Congressional Dems are fighting back and urging EPA to change course 👇

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Trump refuses to release the "study" they used to justify the stop work order for Equinor’s Empire Wind project in NY.

There was never a study. Trump was just doing the bidding of his buddies in Big Oil.

The result? Higher energy bills, and dirtier air for our kids to breathe.

[League of Conservation Voters 🌎 @LCVoters]

"Republicans are actually going to increase costs to energy bills everyday Americans pay by hundreds of dollars a year."

@RepJeffries has been on the floor since 4AM calling out GOP's Big Ugly Bill.

⏰ They could vote ANY MINUTE NOW. Tell your Reps to #VoteNo at [phone]

[Erik Wasson @elwasson]

Miller wears nice suits. Under new style baseline he can buy one for $2,000 and then buy more weekly for $0 by continuing his current nice suit policy

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Brad Lander is a hero.

A true, selfless, courageous, talented hero.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

"We are now in a position in which Republican colleagues are not allowed to say whether or not they support or oppose an amendment" -- bizarre scenes at the House Committee on Natural Resources as Republicans refuse to engage with Joe Neguse's questions & instead sit in silence

[David Shadburn @davidshad35]

Tune into the Natural Resources Cmte reconciliation markup for something novel: Rs are literally saying NOTHING in response to Dem amdts. Rs wont defend polluter giveaways and public lands selloffs because they know its indefensible. Thank you @NRDems for holding them accountable

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

This is not normal.

[Senate Budget Democrats @SenateBudget]

The Vought-a-rama continues: Senate Democrats—including Budget Committee members—are STILL holding the floor in opposition to Trump’s most dangerous nominee: Russell Vought.

[David Shadburn @davidshad35]

Excited to work with @RepDeborahRoss to advance offshore wind, protect our clean air and water, and so much more in the 119th Congress with @LCVoters! Thanks for all you do, Congresswoman! #SwearingInDay

[SNY Mets @SNY_Mets]

The Bronx ➡️ Queens.

[League of Conservation Voters 🌎 @LCVoters]

A new bombshell report from @WSJ confirms that opponents of offshore wind are exploiting right whale deaths to attack the wind industry and protect their fossil fuel donors.

WATCH: @DavidShad35 of @LCVoters -

"Climate advocates know how important the upcoming debate around the tax bill is because we have seen the impact of tax policy both good and bad.

When Republicans had their trifecta back in 2017, they used their bill to eliminate clean energy tax credits and to provide giveaways for their Big Oil donors at the expense of our communities in the form of historic tax breaks for polluters and a horrible poison pill rider opening the iconic Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling."

[David Shadburn @davidshad35]

I'm speaking shortly on behalf of @LCVoters joining the fight for tax fairness! Dirty polluters shouldn't pay less in taxes than working families. In fact, polluters should PAY for the damages they've caused! Thanks @FairShare_USA for organizing this coalition!

[Families Over Billionaires @FOB_Action]

WATCH NOW: Tune in to the Tax Fairness in 2025 press conference with @RepLloydDoggett, @SenatorBennet, @RepGwenMoore, @BeckyPringle, @aijenpoo, @InvestinOurNY, @LCVoters, @SEIU, @4TaxFairness, & more.

The 118th Congress peaked too soon procedurally. We really could have used a defeat of the PQ climax sometime this fall, but instead they are just going to go out with some pedestrian leadership fails on the floor.
