Remember Trump's promises to bring down the cost of living?

As energy affordability worsens and Trump's war causes gas prices to skyrocket, the solution is clear:

Our future depends on a transition to clean, renewable energy.

Trump wants to dumb down our history and cheapen our National Parks. I wonโ€™t let him take our history from us. These stories will be told again and again, long after HE is relegated to the history books.

@repvindman.bsky.social lays out one of many dangerous components of the Republican Farm Bill: how it closes the courthouse doors to those harmed by polluters.

Last week, while everyday Americans continued to struggle with rising energy prices, the House passed two Republican-led bills attacking cost-saving energy efficiency standards and programs. This isn't about addressing affordability; it's about putting profits over people.

Right now, the House is considering the disastrous Farm Bill, legislation that threatens endangered species and forests while shielding pesticide manufacturers from liability. Call your reps TODAY at 202-224-3121 and encourage them to REJECT the Republican Farm Bill!

While Congressman Pearce has said that his past actions are in his rearview mirror, they remain in the memory of every New Mexican who faced his opposition in order to protect the lands they cherish.

I cannot ignore his record and I cannot vote to advance his nomination.

Trump Administration Erases the Governmentโ€™s Power to Fight Climate Change

Trump is turning the EPA into the Environmental POLLUTION Agency.

By killing the endangerment finding, they are endangering all of us. More cities full of smog, more pollution and health problems, more irreversible impacts to nature and wildlifeโ€”that's what they're giving us. So much for MAHA.

Do you want to be breathing more mercury and toxic air pollution? The Trump administration thinks you do. Itโ€™s sick. Even Trumpโ€™s EPA admits that its repeal of mercury will lead to 23% more mercury in the airโ€”poisoning our lungs and our families in a greedy giveaway to Big Coal.

Yet another example of this administrationโ€™s willingness to prioritize polluters over the American people.
