In April 2024, Trump asked Big Oil CEOs for $1 billion in campaign cash in return for tax breaks and gutting environmental protections. Since then, Big Oil has secured $190 billion in tax breaks and subsidies. Trump is delivering for fossil fuel billionaires while we struggle to afford our bills.

The right to vote is one of the most fundamental parts of our democracy. Check your voter registration at IWillVote.com and make a plan to vote early or on Election Day on November 3.

There's so much need in so many places. I know that individually we can't help everyone. But if you're seeing this, maybe you can help this one family. I don't know them, but I do know serious illness. Every little bit can help make life just a little bit less overwhelming. gofund.me/aa3d25aff

Nothing more needs to be said. Get out and vote. Get your family and friends to vote. If you have a few hours a week, come make a difference in swing districts and states with volunteerblue.org?utm_source=B...

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Gas prices are up 24.6% from a year ago and still significantly higher than they were before the Iran War. Meanwhile, the world's 8 biggest oil companies have made a $93B profit windfall in just the last three months. Big Oil is raking it in as the world burns — and we're paying for it.

Reminder to vote tomorrow in South Carolina, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Vermont, and Alabama! And thank you in advance to everyone heading to the polls and to all the poll workers!

Y'know how at the end of Scooby Doo the villain says, "and I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you kids and your dog"? WE'RE the kids and the dog.

This blew my mind. Some of the largest data centers can require up to 5 million gallons of water per day, equivalent to the water use of 50,000 people. Why are we selling out the survival of our planet to enrich a handful of Big Tech CEOs?

Somebody in New York please step up and be these little girls HERO!

Beyond insulting! These people want to make Greenland a state while Americans in DC continue to be denied statehood and voting rights! Not to mention citizens in all the US "territories". Disgusting! Randy Fine introduces House bill seeking to make Greenland 51st state share.google/tBpZgjzILG4o...

A critical bedrock environmental law is under attack. The U.S. House of Representatives will soon vote on legislation that would gut the National Environmental Policy Act — #NEPA for short — and let developers call the shots on #PublicLands. U.S. supporters, please take action ➡️ bit.ly/3MrzoZz

We are facing the most serious threats we've ever seen from Washington, DC. This administration is demonizing us for a simple reason: We get in its way when it tries to destroy public lands and wildlife. We need all our allies with us. Please give now ➡️ bit.ly/4raxigL

Thou shalt replace Chuck Schumer with Chris Van Hollen, who personally went to El Salvador to find Kilmar. That’s the kind of courage we need right now. Like / share if you agree.

You know what's scary? Drowning in plastic! 😱 But a bipartisan, commonsense bill, the Research for Environmental Uses and Sustainable Economies (REUSE) Act, takes an important step toward tackling the plastic pollution crisis. Urge your senators to cosponsor the REUSE Act of 2025 ➡️ bit.ly/3WXntVs

There's a sign wave to support immigrants at the same intersection this afternoon. Hopeing we get a good turnout. Also, this video should be credtied to Raphi Talisman, who was on his way back from dropping his child off at school when he came upon this. He's a professional photographer.

ICE is making communities LESS SAFE. Hyattsville, MD, just outside of DC during a busy rush hour morning commute this week. Unacceptable! youtu.be/XTlY5hSuuTI?...

Anyone who thinks ICE is making communities safer needs to see this. During a brutal "arrest" an ICE agent accidentally drops his gun and kicks it towards bystanders before brandishing it at civilians in a busy intersection during morning rush hour. Terrifying. www.instagram.com/reel/DPCSmdp...

MSNBC frames this as "an unexplained phenomenon" so: This administration is trying to silence people by charging them with bogus felonies. And grand juries - people like you and me - are refusing to return indictments based on bogus charges. Phenomenon explained. www.msnbc.com/deadline-whi...

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

If you live in the US, billionaires have a lower tax rate than you do. thehill.com/business/546...

I am 100% sure that crime in DC has skyrocketed under trump's invasion. It may have reduced petty theft, but these masked goons are themselves breaking laws and causing serious injuries and harm. Not to mention all the lawlessness in the admin itself. amp-cnn-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.cnn....

I've lived in + around DC most of my life. Yes, we had crime. But the street crime was mostly about desperate people doing desperate things. Not monsters feeding on pain. These 'troops' are the monsters inspiring fear + inflicting pain for fun. I've never felt less safe. apnews.com/article/dona...

It's not about protecting us; it's about silencing dissent.
