Our government shouldn’t give $650 billion in annual tax subsidies to a failing industry that pumps toxins into the air we breathe. If we’re going to end the #ClimateCrisis, we need to end subsidies to oil and gas companies, and we need to do it now. https://t.co/oT8l34IW7f — PolitiTweet.org

Equipped with the mandate in @POTUS' Executive Order to examine and mitigate climate-related financial risk by disclosing these risks to the public, federal regulators must now work together to ensure concrete actions are taken and regulations are put into place. — PolitiTweet.org

The billions of dollars in damages from wildfires, blackouts, and superstorms this past year make clear that much more must be done to safeguard the financial security of American families and businesses from rapidly accelerating climate change risk. — PolitiTweet.org

To be sure, we have an opportunity. Shifting from energy sources that require us to buy and pay for people to dig, drill, mine, and transport to energy sources that the earth gives us for free will allow us to provide more people with access to energy at less cost. — PolitiTweet.org
