@RepRobinKelly As your constituent, I’m asking you to ensure that language forcing the approval of the Ambler Mining Road is not included in a final National Defense Authorization Act this year. #KeepItWild

Thank you @SecDebHaaland for listening to LGBTQ+ communities, reversing the @NatlParkService's policy that would ban park rangers from marching in uniform at local #Pride events, and working to make our parks more welcoming to all!
2 days left! @POTUS @State_E the US needs to step up & lead with ambition for a strong #PlasticsTreaty!
Don't let Big Oil lobbyist steal the treaty. Fight back for people and planet! Push for drastic cuts to plastic production: https://t.co/PJPCYTOeJJ
Breaking: A new @Greenpeace poll shows 8/10 people support cutting plastic production.
@POTUS @State_E, #PlasticsTreaty talks start in 2 weeks! Don't let Big Oil producing countries derail negotiations! Champion production ✂️ for climate & health! https://t.co/8TEdQsfW6v
Global negotiations for a once-in-a-generation opportunity to cut plastic production & secure a cleaner, safer planet for us all is weeks away– @POTUS must support a strong #PlasticTreaty! https://t.co/Gu7czq22sm

.@citi 20K killed in Gaza — half of them children. Over a million displaced. @Citi has the largest presence in Israel of any US bank. If Citibank doesn't call for #Ceasefire, I will move my money.
.@citi loaned $ to the IDF for fighter jets in the past, and is complicit in the genocide in Gaza. @citi needs to use their lobbying power to demand full #ceasefire. https://t.co/4owmaDSVrN
Here is the full video of my protest today disrupting the UN High Level Plenary Session of #COP28UAE. They detained me for over 30 minutes after this protest. My only crime- Asking to Phase Out Fossil Fuels, the top cause of climate crisis today. Now they kicked me out of COP28.
@RepRobinKelly The Connect Our Parks Act (S.2018 & H.R.5919) must be amended to protect Wilderness! With the National Park Service administering 40% of the acreage within America’s National Wilderness Preservation System, this is a big issue for Wilderness. #KeepItWild
Solutions to the climate, health, biodiversity & environmental justice crisis all start with producing less #plastic.
As other governments try to develop a strong Global #PlasticsTreaty at #INC3, the U.S. is doing more harm than good. @POTUS @State_E
@JoanEspositoCHI
Disappointed you didn't push back against caller today that said what bad choices we have with Trump or Biden to vote for. What a joke! Just the Medicare drug price reductions as one example; there are hundreds more.
Hey @Citibank John Dugan, the legacy you leave behind matters. Halt @Citi’s investment in fossil fuels and leave a world where future generations can thrive!

🚨URGENT: It's been a month since @aidesep_org sent a letter to @GCFTaskForce demanding it cut off funding to any member state that contributes to the dismantling of Indigenous rights and deforestation, but to date have received no response. #ProtectPIACI https://t.co/tgxcz3Xbs1
BREAKING: MAGA Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is slammed with a lawsuit from a coalition of Arkansas book enthusiasts furious over her deranged new law that threatens librarians with jail time if they help minors get ahold of banned books.
The lawsuit correctly states that the GOP law is a blatant violation of 1st and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
As usual, we see that conservatives only really care about defending "free speech" when it's hate speech they agree with. Actual free speech — as in books that right-wingers find offensive — is something that Republicans are working tirelessly to destroy.
The pro-ignorance, anti-learning law will “subject librarians and booksellers to criminal charges if they provide 'harmful' materials to minors" if the law goes into effect on August 1st.
The Arkansas Library Association and the Central Arkansas Library System are two of the central organizations involved with the lawsuit and should be commended for taking a stand.
“Library workers across Arkansas are rightly concerned that the overly broad edicts of Act 372 will prevent them from serving their patrons as they have always done, by providing a wide variety of materials to fill their information needs, and perhaps more importantly, materials that allow each child to see themselves in the books in their library,” said Arkansas Library Association President Carol Coffey.

BREAKING: Speaker Kevin McCarthy gives a jaw-dropping defense of child labor — something that the Republican Party is increasingly fixated on making legal again to help corporate profits.
"We might have a child that has no job, no dependents but sitting on the couch, we’re going to encourage that person to get a job and have to go to work, which gives them worth and value," said McCarthy.
Republicans want to force kids to work just to gain access to the meager federal benefits programs that keep many of them alive. There truly is no bottom to the GOP. Making money is their only principle.
Retweet if you think that children have worth and value even if they aren't forced to work!
