Let’s talk about energy!

The wells on Jackie Chesnutt's ranch barely produce any oil. She's tired of spills on her property. She just wants the wells plugged. But the company says no can do.

Texas has tens of thousands of wells like this with no end in sight.

Emissions of #methane in U.S. urban areas are 'widely' underestimated, satellite observations suggest in a new study co-authored by MIT Prof./CS3 faculty affiliate Daniel Varon. The study identifies potential mitigation opportunities.

Congrats, Texas! We are now number 1 in data center subsidies… While constituents get crushed with skyrocketing property taxes. Thanks, @GregAbbott_TX

[Claire Hao @clairehao_]

As energy companies race to understand the data center boom, firms are charging thousands of $$ for access to lists of projects. Yet everyday Texans don't have a way to see the same info.

@HoustonChron partnered w/ @CleanviewEnergy to change that: https://t.co/bJZlQA4wZA

I'm over here trying to figure out how Islamophobia and a desire for mass deportations has anything to do with regulating the oil and gas industry...

The federal government plans to install 536 miles of massive, cylindrical buoys in the Rio Grande to prevent unauthorized crossings. The buoys could cost upwards of $3 billion, at a moment when crossings are at record lows. (1) photo by Michael Gonzalez

Meanwhile, the Railroad Commission race, which actually regulates the industry pouring money into these elections, got almost zero attention. Wright and French are headed to a runoff at 32% each. Most voters couldn’t name either one.

Highly hazardous chemical regulations help protect workers and communities. It is dangerous to roll them back. https://t.co/yajkDNA80j

[Martha Pskowski @psskow]

A bunch of Texans are about to learn what the Railroad Commission is!

RT if you think @HarrisVotes needs a new i voted sticker

[Katherine Culbert @EngKatC]

Thank you to all my supporters, unfortunately it wasn’t the result we were hoping for tonight.

[Katherine Culbert @EngKatC]

We need a transparent and accountable Railroad Commission.

[Katherine Culbert @EngKatC]

What industries does the Railroad Commission regulate? Hint: it isn't railroads

Why does the Railroad Commission matter to everyday Texans?

Reliable energy production and community protection don't have to be exclusive of each other.

How much authority does the Railroad Commission have over oil and gas production?

I feel like we can do better! Tie for change at the Railroad Commission. Do you have your plan to vote? #Katherine4Texas #GOPPrimary
