As storms worsen and tides climb higher and higher, my RISEE Act would bolster coastal resilience and help protect communities on the front lines of climate change. I’m glad @EnergyDems are taking up this important bill today. — PolitiTweet.org

How do I know it did no due diligence? 1. It never spoke to lawyers or agents who won tobacco case. 2. It never spoke to scientists who study climate denial. 3. It never sought a single industry document. 4. It didn’t know tobacco was a civil case. — PolitiTweet.org

Might this include a tobacco-style case on climate denial fraud at last? DOJ did zero due diligence before rolling over, despite precedent of winning tobacco case. https://t.co/HHQs5HGG5o — PolitiTweet.org

We can help put affordable higher education within reach by making the Pell Grant entirely tax free. The House @WaysMeansCmte was smart to include that change in their Build Back Better proposal; I’m pushing to get it done in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org

Supreme Court’s problems are rooted in an “authoritarian right-wing that seeks to impose its will by any means possible — including by confirming partisan judges who lack the restraint required for responsible adjudication.” Jennifer Rubin gets it.   https://t.co/sLaOBlIJH4 — PolitiTweet.org

Now it’s on Republicans to decide if they want to defend dark money or join us to clean it up. It shouldn’t be a tough choice. — PolitiTweet.org

Dark money lets big-money donors poison our democracy with anonymous attacks on voting rights, abortion access, and labor unions. The Senate will take up the Freedom to Vote Act and my DISCLOSE Act, which would protect Americans from this toxic flood of dark money. — PolitiTweet.org

We need to fix this and a fix is ready-to-hand: apply traditional, well-known doctrine of ‘respondeat superior’ to police departments, like most every other employer.   https://t.co/NR7Zn2acOV — PolitiTweet.org

Polluter operatives embedded in the Trump administration ignored clear evidence that PFAS is a major public health hazard. I’m glad to hear that President Biden and @EPAMichaelRegan are stepping up to protect Americans from this lurking danger. — PolitiTweet.org

The Van Hollen Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act could help clean this mess up with fossil fuel money, since they don’t clean up after themselves. https://t.co/tfafF1ogdA — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court must at least match every other political institution with a renaissance of transparency. The Court That Dark Money Built has squandered the benefit of the doubt. — PolitiTweet.org

In April, I signed a letter urging the USFWS to help Georgia environmental authorities conduct a careful review of mining proposals near the beautiful & fragile Okefenokee Swamp. This documentary, from Okefenokee Protection Alliance, shows what’s at stake. https://t.co/Gwj8z7wTWK — PolitiTweet.org

The real show of force would be a reconciliation agreement that includes all carbon reduction policies under consideration including a border adjustable carbon pollution fee. Bodies can’t make up for a weak reconciliation bill so let’s get the bill done. https://t.co/YkAg7h9AEF — PolitiTweet.org

Big donors spent $400 million to shape a federal judiciary they could direct at voting rights, labor unions, & abortion access. My DISCLOSE Act would stop that anonymous flow of cash and protect our judiciary from dark money influence. — PolitiTweet.org
