NEW: @whitehouse.senate.gov introduced 16 resolutions to formally acknowledge the harms of climate change and toxic air pollution. An industry corruptly denying the dangers doesn’t change the science. It’s a choice between truth and falsehood, and we want to put the Senate on record.

Trump admits “coal needs a little public relations help.” It’s that pesky black lung disease ruining coal's image! It's polluting, toxic coal for Christmas—courtesy of Trump!

Trump’s assault on clean energy sinks permitting reform. There is no path to a bill if this administration refuses to follow the law. Trump will own higher electricity prices, aging infrastructure, & loss of U.S. competitiveness. @whitehouse.senate.gov & @heinrich.senate.gov's statement:

Statement from Kennedy Center ex-officio board members on Trump’s illegal effort to rename arts institution:

Imagine taking a voice vote with everyone's mics muted and no option to unmute. That's what Trump did in his attempt to illegally slap his name on yet another public building.

Add skyrocketing home insurance premiums to the many ways Trump is making life unaffordable for American families.

More pollution and sicker Americans. It's coal for Christmas! Instead of building affordable clean energy to meet skyrocketing energy demand, Trump has weakened pollution safeguards and accelerated the burning of coal.

Trump and Republicans refuse to address climate change, and homeowners' insurance skyrockets. Families cannot afford Trump's "A+++++" economy.

Weaver must protect NRC’s independence and nuclear safety against Trump Admin pressure and overreach.

Our nation's largest public utility should be led by energy experts, not a political operative with domestic abuse allegations.

Lee Beaman knows cars. But he doesn’t know the first thing about providing electricity to 10 million Americans.

So did FIFA promise Trump their "peace" prize to rent the Kennedy Center for $0.00, or did they give him the prize because they got to rent the Center for $0.00? 🤨

The Trump-Kennedy Center of ... Corruption and Cronyism?

Calling it now. A 2026 Village People residency featuring all of their hit song.

We’re making a list of the Trump Administration’s corrupt handouts and checking it twice: it appears this year, it’s coal for Christmas!

Trump’s corrupt gifts for his fossil fuel megadonors just keep coming. This Administration will force American families to spend $23 billion more at the pump so Big Oil tycoons can get richer and richer.

Climate change has driven up home insurance costs, and now it’s driving down home values across the country. This is the Great Climate Insurance Collapse barreling at us.

TVA needs engineers, scientists, and public power experts—not Trump loyalists with extremist ties.

One nominee must defend U.S. nuclear safety against Trump Admin pressure. The other is implicated in alleged campaign finance fraud, fought to overturn the 2020 election, and is a darling of the Koch network.

This is the guy Trump has chosen to help make sure 10 million Americans have electricity.

What do Kid Rock and Lee Beaman have in common? Both have backstage passes to lobby Republicans while the American people pay the price.

The price fossil fuel forces on everyone else.

The climate crisis demands urgent action. Yet the Trump Administration continues to ignore science, abandon our commitments and leave communities to suffer. Standing with @whitehouse.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, we made it clear that America must lead the world—not walk away from it.

Trump’s cronies at the Kennedy Center are recklessly spending like they’ve just stolen their dad’s credit card. It’s textbook corruption.

NEW: @whitehouse.senate.gov launches investigation into cronyism and corruption at the Kennedy Center. Documents obtained by EPW reveal millions in lost revenue, luxury spending, and preferential treatment for Trump allies at the Center.

As electricity costs surge and home insurance premiums balloon, Trump continues to call climate change a “hoax” and cede global climate leadership. @whitehouse.senate.gov, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, and @pelosi.house.gov sound the alarm on Trump’s climate action abandonment.

Looks like the EPA is celebrating another self-aggrandizing list. Surprising no one, it’s riddled with hyperbole and misdirection. Here are just a few lowlights:

PFAS is a public health menace. The EPA has the tools to clean up contaminated sites and hold polluters accountable for the release of these dangerous chemicals. They must use them.

The U.S. federal government had one representative at this year’s COP: @whitehouse.senate.gov. He showed up with U.S. state & local leaders to show the world that while Trump may think climate change is a hoax, the majority of American people do not.

Energy prices are skyrocketing, and Trump’s “solution” is spending millions to revive expensive, polluting coal plants. This does nothing to make your bills more affordable. It’s a handout to the megadonors who helped get him elected.

Big news: Zeldin discovers Americans actually like saving money on their energy bills

Trump was right about something—we DO need more energy on the grid. So, why is he gutting affordable clean energy that would help lower energy costs?

NEWS: @whitehouse.senate.gov led all EPW Dems to condemn the Trump Administration’s weaponized pause of $11 billion in water projects in blue states. This decision will hurt communities and jeopardizes bipartisan support on the Water Resources Development Act.

Trump's privately funded ballroom is classic pay-to-play corruption. The public deserves to know exactly who is funding Trump’s vanity project—and what he has promised them in return.

New Halloween costume just dropped. So bad it’s scary.

My statement on Republicans trying to jam through the Environment and Public Works Committee a partisan resolution, breaking with years of precedent, for the relocation of the FBI headquarters:

The Trump Admin pushes more industry cronies for the Polluters’ Protection Agency. EPW also considers bipartisan legislation to protect clean air, bolster clean nuclear energy, and save our seas.

The FBI wants to move into a DC building located on top of a Metro stop AND a public parking lot. Great for a Spirit Halloween, not for one of our top national security agencies.

Trump’s attacks on clean energy are sending your bills soaring, but at least his ballroom is coming along.

He's already torn through the Constitution. Of course he bulldozed the People’s House.

Back in January, I predicted that the fossil fuel Looters and Polluters would take over the federal government. I’m saddened—though not surprised—that my grim forecast has already come true. I’m headed to the Senate floor for my 302nd Time to Wake Up speech.

How many fossil fuel-funded Republicans does it take to deliver on one president's promise? Trump pledged to cut your energy bills in half. Instead, costs are UP 10% and STILL CLIMBING.

Trump plans to eliminate a project that would help power a CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL with affordable and reliable clean energy. Bad for kids, bad for the planet, but good for Big Oil.

With the right leadership, TVA has transformative power to lead the energy transition. Instead, Trump has nominated political cronies who could help push TVA into private hands and raise energy costs—all to curry favor with his fossil fuel donors.

As climate change worsens, homeowners' insurance becomes more expensive and harder to get. Families in North Carolina are feeling the pain.

Legions of experts are sounding the alarm about the multiple threats that climate change poses to the global economy. The IMF must not cave to Trump pressure to sideline its climate work. Doing so would be a grave mistake.

The Trump Admin is trying to sell Americans on the benefits of less efficient cars. This will cost families $23 billion more at the pump, generate more pollution, & worsen health outcomes. That's money out of your pocket & into the pockets of fossil fuel donors. How's that for draining the swamp?

The real energy emergency is skyrocketing energy costs—all so Trump’s fossil fuel donors can sell more oil and gas.
