Coastal property owners are told its time to move or floodproof their homes — climate change costs are real and now immediate. https://t.co/SIznNSUWaC — PolitiTweet.org

This is the Death Spiral in real time. Fossil fuel industry sends billions to politicians; politicians let them pollute for free and give other subsidies; they make a fortune and give billions to politicians. https://t.co/Axf44GHHiz — PolitiTweet.org

Dig in to our brief here: https://t.co/irzKON3pUX — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
As we say in our brief: “Transparency is necessary both to preserve the public’s trust and to ensure that the Court avoids undisclosed pitfalls at the hands of self-serving anonymous, dark-money amici.” — PolitiTweet.org

In Moore, the “Honest Elections Project” did not disclose its connections to Leonard Leo and his slimy dark money network, depriving the justices and the public of information that is vital to assessing potential ethics concerns. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
The worst offender in this sordid web is the “Honest Elections Project,” which has deep ties Leonard Leo’s dark money network. Leo’s network politicized the federal judiciary under Trump by packing it with handpicked nominees, producing a captured Court for the radical right. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
And yet, none of them disclose these connections or history to the Court. The lack of transparency is egregious — and a real disservice to the Court. — PolitiTweet.org

This chorus of interconnected groups includes organizations with a history of voter suppression and straight-up election denial. Some even used the “independent state legislature theory” in sinister plots to overturn the 2020 election. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
A flotilla of opaquely funded amici is pushing SCOTUS to adopt a debunked interpretation of the Constitution known as the “independent state legislature theory.” If SCOTUS buys into this fringe theory, it could turbocharge future election subversion and voter suppression efforts. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: @RepHankJohnson and I just filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court in Moore v. Harper, a pending high-stakes partisan gerrymandering case with the potential to unleash chaos in American elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Who thinks big dark-money donors spend a billion dollars to win a Republican Senate and don’t want their money back and then some? Big money in politics corrupts; big dark money in politics corrupts darkly. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
How do you think Mitch McConnell repays those big donors? 1. Keep blocking climate legislation. 2. Undo Medicare negotiation power. 3. More billionaire tax breaks. 4. All of the above. I’m going with 4. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Can I come back to that report that a billion dollars in dark money has been spent on Republican Senate candidates? Stunning. https://t.co/YiNzrl8Qy7 — PolitiTweet.org

Little by little, I’m working to crack down on this dangerous business. Hoping my new bipartisan enforcement bill can pass this Congress! — PolitiTweet.org

While serving as RI’s Attorney General, I fought to hold lead paint manufacturers accountable for their hazardous products. To mark this National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, I’m recommitting to getting clean, lead-free drinking water in every home in the Ocean State. — PolitiTweet.org

Couldn’t get fifty Democrats to agree to do anything on plastics recycling in reconciliation. We need to keep at it. https://t.co/XQhcIBTaSq — PolitiTweet.org

Microplastic is now detected in mothers’ milk and baby poop; recycling is a massive fraud; and the industry is fighting any serious response. It wants PR (public relations) not RP (reduced plastic) as we head for oceans with more plastic than fish. https://t.co/MPOLFh9tRP — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Democrats are fighting (and winning) on behalf of working people, while Republicans try to get even more for billionaire corporations and the ultra-wealthy. — PolitiTweet.org

Why have Republicans set their sights on raising costs for millions of hardworking Americans? Because it’s their big donors who call the shots. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
Every single one of my GOP colleagues voted against these historic investments. Now, they’re trying to renew the GOP tax giveaway for big businesses and the wealthy – even threatening to slash Social Security and Medicare to pay for it. — PolitiTweet.org
Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse
These investments were paid for by cracking down on wealthy tax cheats and making giant corporations pay a fairer share. No one making under $400k will pay more in taxes, and taxpayers will see better customer service at the IRS. — PolitiTweet.org

Our Inflation Reduction Act was a win for the American people over corporate special interests. We lowered health care and prescription drug costs and invested in a clean energy future, while reducing the deficit. — PolitiTweet.org
