A methane pollution fee and a carbon pollution fee (plus border adjustment) will close this gap. A pathway to climate safety exists. Why would we choose not to take it? https://t.co/3IlF4j2Sz4 — PolitiTweet.org

No methane pollution fee, no carbon pollution fee, and emissions numbers hit “fail.” Don’t expect other Senators to accept that. https://t.co/FEDkYHeCsQ — PolitiTweet.org

When the Supreme Court hears arguments on the Texas and Mississippi abortion bans, remember that these cases didn’t spring up on their own. Right-wing donor interests spent decades and massive amounts of dark money to make it happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Ongoing discussions include assurance to Senators that emissions goals, including the role of a carbon polluter fee, will be addressed after a reconciliation framework is agreed to. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a hard sale for democracy to say: “we knew about climate but we let the fossil fuel industry corrupt us and now you’re paying the price so trust our system.” https://t.co/43FyoPX0sW — PolitiTweet.org

Barrett’s rushed confirmation supercharged The Court That Dark Money Built. Our report shows how the Republican majority is the culmination of a decades-old scheme by right-wing donors to capture the Court and achieve what they never could with elections. https://t.co/Y7EbEzmAr6 — PolitiTweet.org

Life-tenured judges follow lower transparency standards than any other federal officials. Our bipartisan bill will make sure the judiciary discloses as much about its stock transactions as elected branches of government. That’s an important safeguard. https://t.co/W08wpVaWTR — PolitiTweet.org

Even low levels of lead exposure can harm a child’s development. For National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, let’s take action to protect our loved ones by passing my Home Lead Safety Tax Credit Act and boosting lead cleanup efforts at the @EPA. https://t.co/35KoRlGb2b — PolitiTweet.org

Where do plastic production facilities release their harmful carbon emissions? Mostly low-income communities & communities of color. It’s time to pass my REDUCE act and get serious about recycling. — PolitiTweet.org

Dark money is behind the attacks on voting rights and the big-donor capture of the Supreme Court. Much like how cockroaches will scuttle away when the light comes on, we need the DISCLOSE Act to shine a spotlight on the secret forces corrupting our politics. #FreedomToVoteAct — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the truth: using fossil fuels to make plastic is bad for our planet. My REDUCE Act would boost recycling and hold polluters accountable for the damage they’ve done. We can’t let plastics be the fossil fuel industry’s next big thing. https://t.co/bpswc1qurD — PolitiTweet.org
