Everyone should help maintain our highways — but @SenateGOP’s plan to saddle #EV drivers with new, sky-high taxes is unfair. @theclf.bsky.social joined 36+ groups #ChargingUSForward to urge congress to stop the fees and build a fair system: static1.squarespace.com/static/602e0...

#NewEngland states join California to sue Trump over the unlawful revocation of state authority for vehicle emission regulations. oag.ca.gov/news/press-r... #Massachusetts #Rhodeisland #vermont

Under Trump's latest attack on our health & economy, big oil wins -- and you lose. Stripping states' rights to set strong tailpipe pollution limits means dirtier air, more climate-damaging emissions, and profits for fossil fuel companies. www.clf.org/newsroom/tru... #routezero @theclf.bsky.social

Trump's continued attacks on California will have negative impacts on #NewEngland states striving for cleaner air and reductions in climate-damaging emissions. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06... #cleancars #cleantrucks #actonclimate

Glad to see exploration of networked geothermal moving ahead in #Maine. www.mainepublic.org/climate/2025... @mainepublic.org #geothermal #cleanheat #cleanenergy #actonclimate #mainepolitics

Today congress unlawfully over-stepped, gutting state authority to adopt standards that would reduce harmful tailpipe pollution from clean cars and trucks. www.clf.org/newsroom/con... #cleancars #cleantrucks #cleanair #climate #climatechaos #actonclimate @theclf.bsky.social

UPDATE: The Senate parliamentarian advised lawmakers that they couldn't use the Congressional Review Act to revoke California's right to set vehicle standards. But they did it anyway. Expect a legal fight.

Today, Senate Rs misused the law to attack states’ clean transportation standards. This will destabilize the work of federal bodies and dramatically extend Congressional overreach. Families across America will pay the price in asthma, cancer, and heart disease. #cleancars #cleantrucks #cleanair

Senate poised today to unlawfully use procedural maneuver to override states' rights to protect their citizens from dangerous and climate-damaging tailpipe pollution: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u... #cleancars #cleantrucks #actonclimate #climatechaos #climatechange #cleanair

The House has already voted to overturn state vehicle emissions rules, and the Senate may vote tomorrow. Here's why you should care. legal-planet.org/2025/05/19/w... #cleancars #actonclimate #cleantrucks #cleanair

Sad to see #Vermont leading the pack on climate roll-backs. The roll-back delays huge health, environmental, and financial benefits. www.mynbc5.com/article/phil... #vermontpolitics #cleancars #EVs #ev #electricvehicle #electricvehicles

We @theclf.bsky.social have been pushing for this proceeding in #Maine for years & welcome the opportunity to take a hard look at the future of decarbonized building heating and cooling! #cleanbuildings #actonclimate #zeroemissions #netzero #GHG @mainepublic.org www.mainepublic.org/climate/2025...

#Vermont gives in to pressure and delays enforcement of #cleancars and #cleantrucks rules--rules that are feasible, life-saving, and cost-saving. As the fed govt shirks its duties & walks back air protections, it’s more important than ever for states to hold the line. www.clf.org/newsroom/sco...

Really interesting early data on NYC's new congestion pricing: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Great to see New England states standing up to the federal government and defending states' rights on energy permitting. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/c... #newengland #maine #vermont #rhodeisland #massachusetts #connecticut #lawsuit #cleanenergy #actonclimate

The House Republican's budget bill is starting to drop. It extends trillions in tax cuts for the wealthy while effectively crippling US manufacturing & energy industries and raising energy costs. It's effectively full repeal of the IRA. Here's tax portion waysandmeans.house.gov/wp-content/u... 🔌💡

Thank you @pingree.house.gov for protecting clean air and defending states’ authority to fight tailpipe pollution. Thanks for standing strong against the @GOP’s misguided CRA effort! Americans should have the freedom to choose cleaner air and lower fuel costs. #CleanerCars #cleancars #cleanair

Read Senate Ds' letter urging Rs to avoid "a dramatic break from Senate precedent with profound institutional consequences" to shortcut all public process and take away states' rights to regulate vehicle emissions to protect health, wallets, and environment. www.padilla.senate.gov/wp-content/u...

Today @ 1: legislature.maine.gov/Audio/#126 I'll be testifying in opposition to a bill that would impose an unfair fee on EV drivers. YES we should all contribute to the highway fund. NO fees shouldn't disproportionately burden those who drive CLEAN and those who drive LESS. #maine #mainepolitics

The polluter should pay -- a seemingly simple concept. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/c...

[email protected]'s “State of the Air” 2025 shows nearly half the country is breathing unhealthy air. Vehicle pollution is part of the problem – we need to protect EPA’s #CleanerCars and #CleanerTrucks standards -- the need for #EVs is clearer than ever. Learn more: Lung.org/sota

It's not enough to stop climate action at the federal level; now Trump is going after states working to save lives and boldly strive for a just, clean energy future. Response from @theclf.bsky.social www.clf.org/newsroom/tru... #actonclimate #newengland #climate #climatepolicy #politics

Under normal circumstances, her decision should end the CRA shenanigans. But these are not, of course, normal times.

Big news: the Senate parliamentarian has ruled that Trump's EPA *can not* revoke California's waiver under the Clean Air Act. Now we'll see whether the GOP gives a shit what the parliamentarian says.

Maine's new building codes take effect today, lowering heating and cooling costs: saving Mainers money and reducing air pollution and climate-damaging emissions -- a win-win! #Maine #cleanenergy #cleanbuildings #energyefficiency www.bangordailynews.com/2025/04/05/b...

“The power of the people is more important and stronger than the people in power," U.S. Sen. Angus King told the thousands who gathered in Portland on Saturday to protest the Trump administration as part of national “Hands Off!” actions.
