Right after President Trump’s divisive SOTU address, House Republicans decided to pass another slew of bills that would further strain our electrical grid & make life more expensive for Americans. It seems worth reiterating to our colleagues that energy costs should be going down, not up.
America watched as Donald Trump blamed anyone but himself for the disastrous policies that are making life in America so unbearably expensive. Trump is the President. His party controls both chambers of Congress. There should be no doubt who is responsible for our current affordability crisis.
Trump's EPA is ignoring its mission to protect American lives and health.
I'm proud to join my @houseseec.bsky.social colleagues in opposing this dangerous rollback.
Climate denial is now the official policy of the United States. Newsflash, Trump and Zeldin: pretending that extreme weather and air pollution don't exist won't fix the problem.
Afraid of windmills like Don Quixote, Trump continues to attack clean, cheap energy under the phony claim that windmills cause cancer.
Now he’s concocted a phony national security claim even though Pentagon had approved project.
This dangerous, anti-science move by the Trump Administration will set environmental protection in the U.S. back decades.
This is exactly why I’m fighting for Farm Bill provisions that invest in conservation, carbon capture, and renewable energy solutions.
You can’t repeal reality. The Endangerment Finding affirmed what scientists have made clear for decades:climate change endangers public health. Walking away from that truth won’t protect families, it just puts them at greater risk. I strongly oppose this reckless decision

The science is overwhelming, Trump's choice to repeal the landmark Endangerment Finding will cost thousands of lives.
After months of the American people and businesses alike warning EPA of the dangers of rolling back life-saving pollution standards, Administrator Lee Zeldin has unleashed an ‘all-you-can-pollute’ assault on the American people.
The Trump Administration is attacking your right to breathe clean air. The science is clear. Climate change is an existential threat to our species. Limiting our ability to regulate pollution serves only to doom the only planet we have to pass on to our children.

Scientists have long warned that greenhouse gases are dangerous to public health and worsening climate change.
But moments ago, Trump’s EPA ended the agency’s legal ability to do anything about regulating these harmful pollutants.
This is disgraceful.
Trump is giving fossil fuel companies a free pass to pollute at the expense of our health.
The admin is dismantling our ability to protect communities from greenhouse gases & will make kids sicker, push prices higher, & destroy our environment.

Repealing the endangerment finding—that greenhouse emissions pose a real threat to human health and the planet—is one of the most reckless decisions this Admin has made.
And that's saying something.
These emissions are THE leading cause of climate change. This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s fact.
The American people expect their leaders to protect them, not endanger their health, their homes, and their future.
Trump has cemented his legacy as the most pro-polluter, anti-health President in history.
The EPA is supposed to protect our families and our environment, but they rely on misleading Department of Energy reports that cherry-picks data to support the Republican, pro-polluter sellout.
The EPA's job could not be more clear: protect the health of our families and the environment we live in. Yet, after months of warnings from the American people and businesses alike, Administrator Lee Zeldin today has unleashed an ‘all-you-can-pollute’ assault on the American people.
Today, SEEC Co-Chair @reppaultonko.bsky.social & Member @repbarragan.bsky.social, w/ @whitehouse.senate.gov & @markey.senate.gov, rallied at a press conference outside EPA headquarters after the White House announced it would repeal the science-based & legally-affirmed Endangerment Finding tomorrow.
Extreme weather and changing climate patterns pose huge risks to producers, farmers, and ranchers.
House Republicans just gave mining companies the green light to dine & dash on our public lands. While mining companies extract our resources at bargain basement prices, Republicans are leaving the American people with the bill for costly mining pollution, toxic drinking water, & health problems.
Today, SEEC's Climate & Agriculture Task Force, led by @pingree.house.gov & @repkimschrier.bsky.social, endorsed 8 bills to help deliver a resilient American food supply chain & ensure the future success of our food producers who are at the front lines in the fight against the climate crisis.
The Boundary Waters is an economic engine for northeastern Minnesota, driving a $13B domestic tourism industry. America's most visited wilderness belongs to the American people, not to corporations that want to strip our public lands of its natural resources to be shipped abroad.
SEEC's Building Resilient Housing Task Force, led by @congressmin.bsky.social & @repjohnnyo.bsky.social, endorsed bills that tackle the dual crisis of housing affordability & an accelerating climate crisis in America. Access to safe, high-quality, & attainable housing should be a fundamental right.
