The House highway bill is completely backwards. It makes no sense to put new fees on EVs and cut funding for transit when Americans are paying more for gas and energy thanks to Trump’s disastrous policies—and while Big Oil pockets billions in taxpayer-funded subsidies.

NEW — Our modeling finds the bipartisan House T&I highway bill would: 🚨 Add 97 million metric tons of climate pollution 🚗 Leave roughly 3 million fewer EVs on the road 📈 Raise fuel costs for families by $40 billion

Did you know burning gas in our homes creates more deadly, asthma causing NOx pollution in the Bay Area than cars? Good thing the @airdistrict.bsky.social is doing something to clean up our air! I'm quoted in this great article from @canarymedia.com. www.canarymedia.com/articles/ele...

The House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee's new bill is a handout to Big Oil—at families' expense. With gas at $4.51/gal, they're proposing an EV fee starting at $130, ramping to $150—taxing households out of the very solution that could save them thousands yearly. 1/3

Secretary Burgum came before Congress today and once again undermined bipartisan permitting negotiations. He made it clear today that this administration has no intention of following the law when it stands in the way of their politically motivated war on wind, solar, and battery projects.

BREAKING: Michigan Republicans just voted to repeal the CEJA, a landmark clean energy package designed to create jobs, strengthen the grid, and lower energy costs. New analysis shows the rollback could raise household energy costs by nearly $5.6B by 2050. www.evergreenaction.com/news/michiga...

Energy costs are soaring, and American households are paying the price. But it doesn’t have to be this way. By treating homes as energy infrastructure, we can save trillions and create over a million jobs nationwide. @rewiringamerica.bsky.social outlines 6 key policies that unlock these benefits.

Youth. Contractors. Physicians. Environmental justice advocates. 99 people showed up today for @airdistrict.bsky.social clean air standards for water heaters! The community is winning—support is strong! Tell the @airdistrict.bsky.social - keep moving forward. #CleanAir

The rest of the world is investing in clean power – the most affordable way to get electricity. That money could be flowing into the US. Instead, Trump is spending our money on bribes to cancel clean energy projects, leaving us with high prices and ensuring the US falls behind.

Polluters are pushing to stall clean air protections that would save lives and cut pollution. Meanwhile, families keep paying the price. We’re calling this out in a full-page @sfchronicle.com ad today. Tell @airdistrict.bsky.social leaders: stand up to fossil fuel pressure. Act now!

NEW: Gov. Josh Shapiro just announced $267M+ for 31 manufacturing projects across PA through the RISE PA grant program—supporting thousands of good jobs and efficiency upgrades that make manufacturing cheaper and cleaner to run. www.evergreenaction.com/news/rise-pa...

New modeling out today! Repealing Michigan's clean energy plan would raise costs, cut jobs, and harm public health. The numbers don't lie. Here's what repeal would actually mean for Michigan. 🧵 Full analysis ⬇️ www.evergreenaction.com/policy-hub/r...

“There’s a path forward for reasonable CLCPA adjustments while still deploying cheap clean energy and cutting pollution,” said Evergreen states vice president Justin Balik. The proposed rollbacks would be bad for New Yorkers' wallets and the air they breathe. www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2026/...

Trump's reckless, destructive, and illegal war in Iran has been a humanitarian and economic disaster for everyone.... except for the small group of elite, mansion-owing CEOs of Big Oil companies who bankrolled his campaign.

“Things would be so much less expensive right now if we had made those advancements.” — @dananessel.bsky.social Instead, fossil fuel companies delayed clean energy—and MI families are paying the price.

Michigan families could save nearly $800 on electricity bills over the next 4 years—if lawmakers act. Here's how: ✅Make data centers pay for their own way ✅Rein in excessive utility profits ✅Expand affordable, customer-owned clean energy www.evergreencollaborative.com/policy-hub/t...

While Trump’s illegal war sends energy prices through the roof, his budget makes clear he has no intention trying to lower costs. Instead, he wants to double down on enriching his Big Oil donors.

Taxpayers pay twice: Trump is giving one billion taxpayer dollars to a company so it WON'T build clean offshore wind. Fewer clean energy projects pushes up utility rates, which costs families even more.

Let’s call this what it is: a taxpayer-funded bribe to kill homegrown clean energy and hand the money straight to oil and gas executives. Trump is once again making Americans pay more for energy so his Big Oil donors can rake in even more profits.

A 13% spike in energy bills over the last year is a warning sign. The Energy Bills Relief Act, introduced in Congress, will cut through the red tape blocking affordable clean energy - like wind and solar - from reaching the grid and put money back in the pockets of families.

💪 "Washington is not going backward on clean energy." Gov. Ferguson signed legislation today that blocks the Trump admin's attempt to force an outdated power plant to keep burning coal. State governments continue to lead on climate! https://evrgn.co/40sYaML

🚨 Michigan GOP just introduced bills to weaken the state’s clean energy laws. If they succeed: ⬆️ Higher energy bills ⬇️ Less reliable power Fully implementing these laws could save MI households ~$300/year. Tell your legislator to protect them ⬇️ actnow.evergreenaction.com/page/93690/a...

🚨New analysis from @synapseenergy.bsky.social: New York families could save at least $341 a year on their energy bills by 2030 with these key reforms. Here's how they do it ⬇️ evrgn.co/NYreport

Americans are already struggling with the cost of getting around and the health effects of transportation pollution. Now, Republicans in Congress are trying to pass a new tax on electric vehicles. This is something we can’t afford to compromise on. https://evrgn.co/4l8iHQm

1️⃣ get rich by selling toxic fossil fuels 2️⃣ donate money to politicians 3️⃣ ask for favors from those politicians, so that you can sell even more toxic fossil fuels repeat as needed https://www.notus.org/senate/harold-hamm-markwayne-mullin-senate-appointment-ask

I guess buying Trump so he would: ➡️ put your cronies at DOE & DOI ➡️ have them issue the drilling permits you always wanted ➡️ relentlessly attack your clean energy competition ➡️ give you a bunch of new tax giveaways ➡️ kill standards you don't like ...isn't enough for Big Oil execs anymore 🤷‍♂️

“Now that energy prices have skyrocketed due to his corporate polluter-first policies, Trump is trying to cover up his mistakes with a photo op,” said @lenamdc.bsky.social, executive director of Evergreen Action https://evrgn.co/40bW1VD

As New York debates cap-and-invest, a new report shows what’s at stake. The program would move $3B off utility bills and deliver about $270 in annual rebates to 6.5M+ households—while also cutting pollution and creating more union jobs. www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2026/...

Wednesday, @senangusking.bsky.social pressed Trump's nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management on the admin's policy of prioritizing fossil fuel development on public lands over renewables. How will he feel in a few years, if the policy is reversed? 🤷‍♂️ 🤔 🦗

Last night at the SOTU, Donald Trump said nothing about his failed promise to cut energy bills in half—and in fact, 164 million households have seen those bills go up on his watch. Meanwhile, MI is choosing cheaper, more reliable clean energy—the actual solution to high costs.

Evergreen Executive Director @lenamdc.bsky.social: Trump's energy policies are meant to enrich his corporate polluter, crony friends who bankrolled his campaign while the rest of us foot the bill. Governor Spanberger was right last night: Trump is not working for the American people.

Wow, forgot what a coherent leader sounds like

The President is out of touch. This speech, like the entire Trump presidency, is not focused on the problems that regular people are dealing with every day.

Voters want data centers in their community to be powered by clean energy, not polluting fossil fuels

Trump promised to cut the cost of electricity in half in his first year. He failed. That broken promise cost American families $537 last year. And it's getting worse.

There are two Americas in Trump’s regime. One for fossil fuel executives, billionaires, and corporate insiders who bankroll his campaigns and get special treatment. And another for working families facing higher utility bills, rising insurance costs, and growing climate risks.

The Michigan data center boom can either raise bills or accelerate cheaper clean power. Our electeds must demand transparency and guardrails that protect ratepayers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/dte-nears-deal-to-serve-second-major-michigan-data-center-with-more-in-line/ar-AA1WwNyC

The Wisconsin story is simple: utilities are using data center demand to justify building gas plants that raise bills. The cheapest power on the grid? Renewables. Clean energy = cheap energy. tonemadison.com/articles/wis...

Last week, the Trump administration made climate denial their official policy. But that isn't stopping governors and legislators from taking the lead on clean, affordable energy and transportation in their states. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/climate/trump-climate-policies-states.html

"Natural gas accounts for roughly 40% of U.S. electricity generation and provides heating for around 46% of households. The price of natural gas has risen nearly 50% from last year" We can't bear the freeze, and we can't afford the squeeze. https://evrgn.co/3Op7lLo

🚨 New data from @envdefensefund.bsky.social has a bleak warning: The Trump EPA's disastrous decision to repeal the endangerment finding could cost Americans up to $1.4 TRILLION by 2055 in higher fuel costs. The only people celebrating this are the corporations that paid for it. buff.ly/Ak8VQZE

The only people celebrating this decision are the corporations who paid for it. The EPA exists for one reason: to protect our health and the environment. But under Trump and Administrator Zeldin, it’s become a protection racket for their Big Fossil Fuel allies.

Reporter Kristen Billings detailed how Wisconsin energy utilities are sacrificing affordability and sustainability to fuel the AI gold rush. Gas plants used to power data centers are increasing costs for consumers, the risk of exposure to pollutants, and accelerating the harms of climate change.

A new report from @aceee.org finds "implementing energy-efficiency measures and shifting electricity usage to lower-demand times could help meet much, if not all, of the nation’s projected load growth, and would cost only half what building out new infrastructure would. https://evrgn.co/3NYO4Aj

"Electric and gas utilities requested almost $31 billion worth of rate increases in 2025, according to an analysis by the energy policy nonprofit PowerLines. That’s more than double what utilities asked for just a year earlier." https://heatmap.news/sparks/powerlines-utility-rate-increase-2025

Developers are building houses that cost less by skipping the gas hookup. Saves time and money and lowers utility bills! www.nytimes.com/2026/01/29/c...

“We grant utilities a monopoly. In exchange, they must keep costs just and reasonable.” — @joshshapiropa.bsky.social 👏👏👏 If utilities block cheaper wind & solar to protect profits and push costly gas instead, they should be held accountable.

NEW: @governor.pa.gov just announced stronger standards for incoming data centers to bring their own power. While this is a step in the right direction, to truly fix the grid and stabilize costs, PA must double down on the cheapest solution we have: clean energy.
