Social media is addicting our kids and accelerating a teen mental health crisis. Parents are battling alone against the biggest tech companies — and we're losing ground. That's why I've proposed a new federal watchdog for big tech to have their back. https://t.co/wKfv7Tdluy — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, it includes my bill with @SenWarren & @SenAngusKing to ensure the biggest corporations pay at least 15% in taxes. Last year, Chevron paid 1.8%. Amazon paid 6%, less than teachers & firefighters in Colorado. That’s deeply unfair, and we put an end to it. (12/12) — PolitiTweet.org

I also fought alongside @SenCortezMasto & @SenMarkKelly to include $4B to tackle drought in the American West. The funding will support water conservation, habitat restoration, and drought mitigation efforts across the Colorado River Basin. (11/12) — PolitiTweet.org

We secured nearly $25B for the @SenateAgDems Subcommittee I chair on Conservation, Climate & Forestry to promote environmentally-friendly farming, improve forest health, & fight wildfires. This draws on the Outdoor Restoration Partnership Act I introduced last year. 🌲🧑‍🌾🌲(10/12) — PolitiTweet.org

The bill creates a fee on methane pollution from the oil and gas industry, a greenhouse gas many times more powerful than carbon dioxide. I’ve spent years advocating for stronger federal protections to cut methane, drawing on our leadership in Colorado. (9/12) — PolitiTweet.org

It includes $14B for rural clean energy. That includes $10B for rural electric cooperatives, like CO's @TriStateGT, & more for rural small businesses, ag producers, public power utilities & others. It'll lower energy costs & create clean energy jobs in rural communities. (8/12) — PolitiTweet.org

It includes 3 of my bills to boost US manufacturing for wind & solar energy components, along with next-generation batteries to power electric vehicles and our energy grid to create good-paying jobs & reduce our dependence on foreign imports from nations like China. ☀️⚡️🔋 (7/12) — PolitiTweet.org

And it includes my proposal to ensure those credits can be accessed for the first time ever by entities without tax liability, like rural electric cooperatives, public power utilities, & Tribes. It'll create a powerful incentive to accelerate our transition to clean energy.(6/12) — PolitiTweet.org

The bill creates long-term tax credits to accelerate clean energy deployment, which will provide much-needed certainty and move us away from the boom and bust cycles that have plagued the industry for years. (5/12) — PolitiTweet.org

It permanently funds support for coal miners who’ve suffered from black lung disease. They worked for years putting their health at risk to power our economy, and America needs to be there for them now. I was glad to sponsor this bill with @Sen_JoeManchin. (4/12) — PolitiTweet.org

It also extends a tax credit to help over 150,000 Coloradans afford their health care premiums, something @SenatorHick and I pushed to include in this bill. Through these credits, our state received $74 million in 2021 to help lower health care costs for Coloradans. (3/12) — PolitiTweet.org

The bill requires Medicare to negotiate drug prices on behalf of the American people. It will save seniors thousands of dollars, and save the country billions of dollars. This was a pillar of my Medicare-X bill back in 2017. 💊🏥💵(2/12) — PolitiTweet.org

The House just passed the Inflation Reduction Act. There are so many important parts of this bill that will make a meaningful difference for Colorado & the country, but I want to highlight a few that I fought hard to secure in the final version as it heads to @POTUS: 🧵⬇️(1/12) — PolitiTweet.org

According to Colorado's own @RockyMtnInst, the combination of the infrastructure bill, the CHIPS bill and the Inflation Reduction Act will TRIPLE federal investment in climate and clean energy over the last decade. This is what progress looks like. https://t.co/NVQkVjrUWI — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: Colorado will receive nearly $46M from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law for transportation projects that will connect rural communities, reduce congestion & strengthen local economies. This is the biggest investment in roads & bridges in generations — and it's delivering. — PolitiTweet.org

When I’ve visited Northwest Colorado, I’ve heard concerns about what coal mine & power plant closures will mean for their main streets and way of life. This funding will help Hayden and Craig diversify their economies, attract businesses, and create jobs. https://t.co/cxDShbupr9 — PolitiTweet.org

The Inflation Reduction Act will put us on track to reduce climate pollution 40% by the end of the decade. And it will position America to lead the world in our urgent fight against climate change. https://t.co/XYsA0qTa74 — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, the American West is plagued with severe drought. I fought to secure $4 billion in the Inflation Reduction Act to address this crisis. I'm glad Washington stepped up to support our communities throughout the Colorado River Basin. https://t.co/38Ta4K4gwd — PolitiTweet.org
