Basically corporate America sucks on climate when in Congress (a) because their trade associations suck and (b) because so many have “other priorities” like tax breaks, deregulation, etc. that they see as immediate bottom-line stuff. And suck they do. https://t.co/lBM99jkW6G — PolitiTweet.org

Central Falls - the hardest hit part of RI in the pandemic - has had to rely on ambulances from other cities and towns to transport patients to the hospital. It’s a relief that we were able to secure federal funding so that the City can soon have 2 rescues of its own. https://t.co/AFVP2B8eum — PolitiTweet.org

I am jealous! How I’d love to get those companies under oath. But Senate 50/50 rule requires bipartisan subpoenas. So, go @RoKhanna!! Make us proud. https://t.co/D0PIuY1jVY — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you, @SenatorDurbin. For some reason, conventional wisdom has not realized how strong carbon pricing is in Senate. Durbin is Majority Whip. And there are many more. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to do something about the single-use plastic clogging our oceans. My REDUCE Act would tackle plastic pollution and boost recycling. https://t.co/g12UoIQ0qU — PolitiTweet.org

A right-wing dark money group, @ClaremontInst, defends (and pays) the guy who ginned up wacky legal arguments to overturn the election. That’s Exhibit A for why we need to spotlight big-money donors funding the coup-planners. — PolitiTweet.org

Breaking ground on Washington Bridge improvements with @RIDOTNews. We secured federal $ for this project, which will support economic development along East Providence’s waterfront and ease traffic for people heading to Providence from the East Bay. https://t.co/D9gNrbcEIP — PolitiTweet.org

(Yes, that does mean fossil fuel industry could do it right now if they wanted, but they choose not to stop the leakage because it’s free to pollute so what the hell...) — PolitiTweet.org

A fee on methane leakage will put an end to this mischief. Indeed, estimates predict leakers will clean up the leaks fast once it’s not free to pollute. https://t.co/A6eiji9Q5d — PolitiTweet.org

We have the chance to do all three in reconciliation and change the dangerous trajectory of the Earth. Or we can let the polluters keep calling the shots. We need to pass all three, now. — PolitiTweet.org

By 2050, oceans will have more plastic waste than living fish. Disposable plastic items use virtually no recycled plastic. To change that path, a plastics pollution fee can give recycling a boost and industry an incentive and seas a future. — PolitiTweet.org

The supercharged greenhouse gas disrupting Earth’s operating systems is methane, which the fossil fuel industry leaks, copiously. A methane pollution fee will virtually eliminate that leakage, fast. And we’ll be safer and healthier. — PolitiTweet.org

The major disruptor of Earth’s basic operating systems is fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions. Making the fossil fuel industry pay a carbon pollution fee is the most effective way to stop those emissions, spur energy innovation, and turn toward safety. — PolitiTweet.org

And that’s without even getting into the problem of the dark money network that chose the last three justices, funded their confirmation battles, and directs them through orchestrated flotillas of phony front-group “amici.” https://t.co/DME1xEJ5cQ — PolitiTweet.org
