The size of Big Oil helps explain how they run massive covert operations within and against America to block climate legislation. https://t.co/AVqvlTdeWG — PolitiTweet.org

Keep talking. Everyone else in government has a place where ethics concerns about them get sent and reviewed. It ain’t asking much. https://t.co/lcheeq5nDU — PolitiTweet.org

Every other senior federal official is subject to ethics guardrails and procedures. It’s beyond time to bring proper rules—and procedures to enforce the rules—to the justices of our highest court. https://t.co/D1hrZqvqKm — PolitiTweet.org

Americans are losing confidence in their Supreme Court — and for good reason. Today, @RepHankJohnson and I reintroduced the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, & Transparency (SCERT) Act to bring real transparency and accountability to the Court. — PolitiTweet.org

Big Oil’s trained-seal Republicans block Biden’s $11 billion pledge for climate loss and damage overseas, while Big Oil sits on $200 billion from profiteering that it won’t use to help. Instead? Stock buy-backs, making management rich! https://t.co/ZWDYodJj3h — PolitiTweet.org

Every family deserves access to affordable high-quality child care. That’s why this week I joined with colleagues to introduce two bills that ensure kids grow up healthy, give parents more upward mobility, and invest in our caregiving workforce. — PolitiTweet.org

We always find out too little too late about Big Oil’s secretive climate denial and obstruction campaign — time to make them disclose their scheming when they show up at COPs. https://t.co/8TY9ijthxY — PolitiTweet.org

Note from State of the Union: McCarthy had specifically told his MAGA extremists to be on best behavior, so what you saw last night — the catcalls, jeering and general rudeness — was their “best behavior.” POTUS handled it great: “good luck in your senior year.” — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight, @POTUS gave an optimistic look at the possibilities for our nation. We’ve accomplished big things in the last year, and we need to keep building on our momentum. — PolitiTweet.org

The PACT Act was a significant step forward in honoring America’s sacred commitment to ensure veterans like Mr. Scullin – who have given so much to the nation – are treated with the dignity they have earned many times over. It’s a privilege to be joined by Mr. Scullin tonight. — PolitiTweet.org

Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse

I’m honored to welcome my guest for tonight’s #SOTU, Mr. Vance Scullin of Woonsocket. Mr. Scullin is an Army and Rhode Island National Guard veteran who is newly eligible for benefits thanks to the PACT Act which @POTUS signed into law last year. https://t.co/jsKWXlWLMH — PolitiTweet.org

The reason banks and investors want climate and emissions reporting is that long-forecast climate harms have now entered their “due diligence” horizon. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the direction in which reason and fact are driving responsible investors, which is why fossil fuel has whistled up its fake “woke capitalism” campaign. Don’t buy it.   https://t.co/mKtToFlejs — PolitiTweet.org
