Why would we not use polluter fees if we’re serious? https://t.co/AI1V4l4LNF — PolitiTweet.org

Carbon pollution fees are the most effective tool against climate change, supported by economists, businesses, environmental groups, and common sense. https://t.co/jKW5XWIvVW — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s my ‘concept’: they are corrupt climate deniers whose position will morph with the situation to stop any serious climate legislation; and Climate Denial 2.0 is to pretend to care about climate while doing your dirty political work to protect pollution. — PolitiTweet.org

(PS there’s no actual climate pollution fee bill they ever supported, just the ‘concept.’) — PolitiTweet.org

API pretends to support a fee on climate pollution, until you get close to actually doing one. When my methane emissions fee got into the reconciliation framework, here is their insta-pivot, a full 180. https://t.co/UlLYj8dJls — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I’m joining @StopBigMoney and @davidcicilline to talk about dark money in our elections, and how my DISCLOSE Act could repair the damage. Watch here: https://t.co/c4fdIiawk4 — PolitiTweet.org

Abortion access is under all-out attack. I commend @JimLangevin for supporting the Women’s Health Protection Act and women’s ability to access safe abortions. Every woman has the right to make her own decisions about her health. https://t.co/JcnN9DwcfW — PolitiTweet.org

News that is not: WASHINGTON - The wealthiest 1 percent of Americans are the nation’s most egregious tax evaders, failing to pay as much as $163 billion in owed taxes per year, according to a Treasury Department report released on Wednesday. https://t.co/ESGnRsab7x — PolitiTweet.org

This is good climate news, if real. Most corporate support for carbon pollution fees vanishes in proximity to actual legislative carbon pollution fees; corporate trade associations are constantly up to no good. https://t.co/9ohgkcur9t — PolitiTweet.org

Go Speaker Pelosi! She’s calling out Republicans for “amassing $7 trillion in debt...on the Trump credit card,” and then refusing to lift U.S. debt limit to pay their bills. https://t.co/w6yKEWtiCF — PolitiTweet.org

Dark money groups are free to buy campaign ads and fund rallies, but their candidates can still lose elections. That's why we're seeing the Republican focus on voter suppression – sometimes, it’s easier to silence people than to win their support. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been a tough stretch and many Americans are struggling with mental health and thoughts of suicide. There are 24/7 resources available to help. If someone you know needs support, they can text NAMI to 741-741 or call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. — PolitiTweet.org

Remember: this isn’t just the worst year in the last ten or twenty; it’s likely the best year in the next ten or twenty. Buckle up. https://t.co/LjuEZySwlR — PolitiTweet.org

Over a decade ago, the Supreme Court let dark money flood our political system. American democracy has been paying for it ever since. Tomorrow, I'm joining @EndCitizensUnited and @RepCicilline to share how my DISCLOSE Act can stop the rot. https://t.co/c4fdIiawk4 — PolitiTweet.org

Lots of young people could benefit from mental & behavioral health care right now, but finding it can be a challenge. I'm so glad I could help channel $1.8 million dollars into RI schools to connect students with support in this difficult time. https://t.co/cZy4Sg8lcI — PolitiTweet.org

The effort to capture the court has likely been the most effective deployment of right-wing and corporate resources into our common American political life. And America is now a very different place because of it. We accept it as normal when it isn’t. — PolitiTweet.org

Great actor in a great role in a great show. Before there was binge-watching, there was ‘The Wire’ and Williams’s Omar. https://t.co/o1LzVi1fKs — PolitiTweet.org

Democracy took another heavy blow in Texas today, as the dark money voter suppression machine drags us further from our founding principles, greenlit by a captured Supreme Court. We need S.1 and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, now. https://t.co/y0QqjmnBNP — PolitiTweet.org

On climate legislation, please note “the opposition campaigns of big trade associations like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Business Roundtable, whose members include companies that claim to support climate legislation.” https://t.co/apRl3eqAxt — PolitiTweet.org

The Army Corps warned me of this hydraulic phenomenon on my climate trip to Florida in 2014. I gave a speech on it in the Senate that May. They even had maps! How can we ignore known information for years? https://t.co/SWLhMLLKDs — PolitiTweet.org

This Labor Day, we pause to appreciate the enormous contributions of American workers, and to rededicate ourselves to the fight for fair pay, safe conditions, and equal rights. — PolitiTweet.org

The projections speak for themselves. A carbon polluter fee is a clear and effective solution - hence the opposition from polluters. https://t.co/OjCKI7efA5 — PolitiTweet.org

The environmental cost of fossil fuels is incredibly high, and future generations will have to pay it. This piece from high school students with @S4CD_Official is a strong argument for making carbon pricing part of our reconciliation bill. https://t.co/ymR2gTs0eM — PolitiTweet.org

Take “regulatory capture” and apply it to a court - that’s what this is. — PolitiTweet.org

Please stop saying they are “conservative” or “to the right of” Roberts. They were planted on the Court by dark-money special interests to deliver wins by whatever means they can get away with. https://t.co/j0i0WNK3Su — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump admin used expanded executive privilege to dodge accountability and mislead the public about the Mueller report. To stop history from repeating itself, I'm pushing back on the DOJ for upholding such unreasonably broad standards. — PolitiTweet.org
