Exciting news for Oregon! Chuck Sams is a dedicated public servant and tireless advocate for conservation—a perfect fit to lead NPS. I fully support his historic nomination, and look forward to his confirmation coming up for a vote on the Senate floor. https://t.co/nLoS8lP04G — PolitiTweet.org

The Bootleg Fire was one of the largest in the country this year, and communities in Oregon are still reeling from the destruction and poor air quality it left in its wake. This is why I’m fighting in the Senate for investments in forest resiliency and bold climate action. https://t.co/7rCsYaai21 — PolitiTweet.org

That includes investments in clean school buses, a civilian climate corps, climate smart ports, clean drinking water access, and more. #ClimateActionNow — PolitiTweet.org

Climate must be included when the infrastructure ship leaves the dock, and our climate action must be rooted in environmental justice. Investments must drive a rapid transition from fossil fuels to a renewable energy economy. — PolitiTweet.org

It is also so important that we’re listening to voices from EJ communities when making decisions about where and how to invest. The folks who know their community best are the people who live, work, and raise families there, and oftentimes they are denied a seat at the table. — PolitiTweet.org

There are so many ways we can right historical wrongs, from Superfund cleanup to lead pipe removal. We’re also facing a housing crisis in our country, and as we look to solve that problem, we should be investing in climate-resilient affordable housing. — PolitiTweet.org

Extracting and burning fossil fuels poisons people and drives climate chaos. Our legacy of environmental racism means communities of color and low-income communities experience disproportionate impacts of climate chaos, from heat waves to flooding to toxic air, first and worst. — PolitiTweet.org

If we do it right, the infrastructure package will ensure every Oregonian has access to clean air and water. During wildfire season, Oregon has some of the worst air quality in the country, which disproportionately impacts low-income communities and communities of color. — PolitiTweet.org

Our climate action must be rooted in environmental justice, from planning to implementation. Historically, we’ve failed on this—choking poor communities and communities of color with toxic pollution and creating “heat islands” that amplify the worst heat impacts of climate chaos. — PolitiTweet.org

We need to lower prescription drug prices—there’s no reason why patients in the U.S. should be paying two and three times more for name-brand prescription drugs than the rest of the world.https://t.co/fnZ3hg3Gg0 — PolitiTweet.org

As Otis recovers, the final touch of beauty comes from the volunteer-run Landscaping with Love, started by Otis residents, many of whom lost their homes in the wildfire. These folks help their neighbors by making starts and planting on people’s land as they rebuild. #OtisStrong https://t.co/QQ6KIgMB9F — PolitiTweet.org

Started the day in Otis, Ore., where volunteers are providing resources to wildfire survivors. I talked with Norma, the lead volunteer here, who told me, “People say, ‘I just want to be home again, but I lost everything.’ We want to do everything to help them feel home again.” https://t.co/5plTREzWR1 — PolitiTweet.org

The past is not so far behind us. In state legislatures across the country, the GOP is introducing legislation to erode the freedom of every American to cast their ballot. That's just plain wrong—they’re trying to take us back to before the Voting Rights Act of 1965. https://t.co/sErImIPyqj — PolitiTweet.org
