It was a privilege to speak at the American Climate Leadership Summit organized by @ecoAmerica last week. I gave a field report of what’s actually happening inside Congress around climate change. It’s not exactly what you think. See my remarks here: https://t.co/08CkGmtdyX — PolitiTweet.org

A. Executive officials don’t get to decide "proper legislative purpose" for Congress. B. Oversight of the Presidents’ financial entanglements with foreign interests is a very proper legislative purpose — as the Constitution reflects very specifically. https://t.co/oFCrbFXysd — PolitiTweet.org

In 2005, @USChamber fought against bipartisan cap & trade legislation, scoring the vote against members of Congress if they voted for it. #ChamberofCarbon https://t.co/Y6YZFs2RGW — PolitiTweet.org

In early 2000s, John McCain & @JoeLieberman began working on legislation to reduce carbon pollution; @USChamber & others created phony front group, “United for Jobs,” to oppose their work. #ChamberofCarbon https://t.co/iWbntyvIHR — PolitiTweet.org

FWIW this former prosecutor agrees with these near-400 prosecutors. The pattern is probative of intent, and an attempt is a chargeable obstruction offense. Moreover, it’s rare to get away with "inadequate" written answers, no subpoena and no 5th. https://t.co/11Ksb2TZOG — PolitiTweet.org

.@USChamber now says climate change is a “serious challenge.” For years, Chamber has been the "serious challenge" — should be called Chamber of Carbon, not Chamber of Commerce. #ChamberofCarbon — PolitiTweet.org

How polluters have Congress by the throat: not only do Republicans let them pollute for free, they give them tax breaks until they pay no taxes. I wonder how much political spending it costs to get that special treatment. https://t.co/bExR3qvzzi — PolitiTweet.org

In April, there were only two substantive segments on climate change, marking a three month low. We can see the effects of climate change all around us. We just don't see it covered by some of the most influential TV news shows in a meaningful, consistent way. #ClimateCoverage https://t.co/G88dAJfU0t — PolitiTweet.org
