It is illegal to not follow a court order and it is just wrong to delay food assistance to children, seniors, veterans, working parents, and people with disabilities.

the energy transition means thinking and acting differently, not just using different energy sources www.reuters.com/business/ene...

On November 1, over 40 million people will lose the #SNAP assistance they count on to cover the rising cost of groceries and feed their families. Leaders must step up and call on President Trump to ensure that families’ food assistance is funded through November.

let's get real about the fundamental tensions between pricing people out and subsidizing risk. and let's not look away from how devastating FAIR plans can be to state budgets. I don't think we're anywhere close to getting this right but still worth reading www.nrdc.org/resources/in...

so, here's the thing about racial profiling - you can actually teach 9 year olds not to do it. this is indeed what i did the other day when my kid asked why someone who looked east asian didn't speak with an accent the way her art teacher does.

curious how Sec. Wright is defining "energy" ... does it include my farts, because those are pretty potent and perhaps he's right, could be tough to replace with renewables.

We stand with D.C. residents and organizations calling for the immediate recall of our states’ National Guard troops. D.C.’s elected leaders have not asked for our states’ assistance- and have been clear in their opposition to the overt federal presence in their city.

This is how big Erin is. Climate privilege + being an adaptation professional = my thoughts in this moment are about the window of opportunity we may have in the aftermath of this storm to reform disaster policy to promote climate resilience.

PJM, the electric grid operator for 13 states & DC, will deliver price increases & more fossil fuels next year, based on its latest capacity auction results. State action curbed steeper price spikes, but PJM must do better. Here’s why ⬇️ ⬇️

The GOP budget law cut unobligated $ for many IRA programs that would improve air quality + build climate resilience + lower energy bills. New CBO #s shows cuts to $14b in climate related programs supporting states and communities www.cbo.gov/publication/...

Last weekend Florida lawmakers got a chance to visit Alligator Alcatraz, and the reports that came from that visit were shocking. We can’t stand for this as a country — this is not who we are.

Energy second only to deficit as reason public disapproves of OBBB. "By a 25-point margin, they oppose its removal of incentives for the use of clean energy to encourage the use of oil and gas." www.cnn.com/2025/07/16/p...

The flooding deaths in TX are horrific. We can't say for sure if they were preventable, but we do know 2 things: 1. Accurate flood maps, early warning systems, and timely disaster response saves lives. 2. Funding cuts at NOAA and FEMA will kill people.

We'll be fighting tooth & nail for appropriations to programs that save lives, especially given the harms to people with the lowest incomes in the Big Ugly Bill. "Extreme heat may be a silent killer, but our failure to act would speak volumes." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Like the House bill, the Senate reconciliation package would supercharge fossil fuel extraction & use, increase energy costs, and worsen exposure to dangerous climate impacts. Read on for details.

Like the House bill, The Senate Republican tax plan makes harmful cuts to clean energy tax credits, which would raise energy costs, undermine economic opportunity, & increase harmful air & climate pollution, to partially offset the cost of its tax cuts for the wealthy. www.cbpp.org/blog/trackin...

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

As nearly 60 utilities move to increase their rates, Republicans in Congress are attempting to eliminate affordable & inexpensive sources of energy. The result? American households & businesses stuck with the bill. @americanprogress.bsky.social www.americanprogress.org/article/with...

Senate Environment + Public Works Committee Republicans released their portion of the budget + tax proposal that is expected to raise energy bills and worsen pollution. The bill mostly mirrors the House bill + repeals many federal programs created by the IRA.

Q for Secretary Wright: If solar and wind are "no longer emerging and, therefore, not in need of federal support" then what's with the billions in federal fossil fuel subsidies? www.eenews.net/articles/chr...

Instead of using this money to fund, say, the National Weather Service right before hurricane season, they're using it to send Marines to Los Angeles. THIS is waste and abuse.

Imagine kidnapping people off the street in broad daylight and thinking you're the "good guys". People who are at work, at their kids' school or otherwise minding their business. Imagine shooting people with rubber bullets because they want it to stop and thinking you're the "good guys". 🤔😑

The House bill includes $546B in cuts to clean energy tax credits & other programs designed to promote clean energy & climate resilience. Cuts would raise energy costs, undermine economic opp in struggling communities, hasten climate change, & threaten health. www.cbpp.org/research/cli...
