Thank you @leadlocally.bsky.social and @thehumpod.bsky.social for the opportunity to share the story of Louisiana’s #Meta Hyperion Data Center project at #NYCClimateWeek @peterhubbardga.bsky.social #EnergyJustice #datacenters #Louisiana #ClimateJustice

Thank you Washingtonian Magazine for giving me an opportunity to lay out my vision for the future of DC. washingtonian.com/2026/09/24/i...

RI's got its own Zohran! I'm SO excited that @davidmoralespvd.bsky.social won the primary for Providence & glad that @leadlocally.bsky.social was able to have a part in supporting. We need more ppl leading our cities who know the climate & affordability crisis go hand in hand and will lead on both 🥹

Here's the precinct map of D.C., and you can see that @janeese4dc.bsky.social has so far cleaned up in almost all central parts of D.C., which includes Ward 1 and Ward 6, much of wards 4 and 5, and most of east of the river. This is an impressive showing by any measure.

yellow map: areas where McDuffie did better. blue map: wealthy R-1-A and R-1-B zones that have only allowed detached housing for ~100 years

Our campaign director @johnqua.bsky.social will join @lcv.org for a panel on how to get PAC endorsements, for anyone who is thinking of running for office! Happening next week w/ colleagues from @climatecabinet.org @runforsomething.net: lcv.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

.@aparnafordc.bsky.social has raised enough to max out all public matching funds! The fastest ward level candidate to do so in DC history! Can personally attest this was a massive amount of work. Let's go win this now 🔥

HUGE win for climate and utility affordability down ballot in AZ! Against Turning Point of all things! So grateful for partners & candidates we got to work with here who led for years towards this majority:

This is why I’m running. For workers. For parents. For renters. For immigrants. For all of us. Join us: secure.actblue.com/donate/aparn...

.@mdcdsa.org made me the organizer I am today.🌹✊🏾 During Trump's first term, DSA gave me hope that a better world was still possible. That hope guides my campaign for a Ward 1 with rent caps, free childcare, union jobs, and everything we need for a life of dignity and joy.

MDC DSA is excited to announce that we have endorsed the former Chair of our chapter, Aparna Raj, for Ward 1 DC Council! Follow them @aparnafordc.bsky.social to keep up with the campaign and watch for upcoming canvasses and events!

Fun Fact - the Georgia seat that flipped last night is the majority maker seat in the state house. If everything more Dem than this seat were to flip, the chamber would flip.

We have one job for you today: buy a shirt to elect more @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's. We are re-releasing our limited edition Zohran shirts with a goal of raising $5k by 12/31! secure.actblue.com/donate/clima...

Honored to join @afroamcivilwar.org.web.brid.gy this #VeteransDay morning to read the names of Black soldiers who fought for liberation. We honor all veterans and their legacy as we continue to organize for a country where housing, healthcare, and safety are rights – not privileges.

knocked doors this weekend for Nicole Cole w @leadlocally.bsky.social and it was a blast 💚 we can flip VA blue and stand up to the Trump admin, win on climate, abortion, and SO much more! dm me if you're in DC & wanna join next weekend!

We're busy on the ground canvassing in key flippable districts in Virginia including for @johnmcauliff.bsky.social in HD-30!

Pay attention to the most important political race of the YEAR! This ep is a must listen, feat. @peterhubbardga.bsky.social and @gcvoters.bsky.social!

Live in NYC? Coming to Climate Week? Join @leadlocally.bsky.social for a Zohran fundraiser party with @bradlander.bsky.social! We’re gonna have good music, good ppl, & some fun climate/Zohran t shirts you’re gonna want!!! 😊💛 let’s make sure the climate mvmt shows up to elect Zohran!

200+ people came out to launch @aparnafordc.bsky.social’s campaign last night! We can win this y’all 💛✊

Big climate win in Michigan! Grand Rapids — Michigan’s 2nd-largest city — just passed its first Climate Action & Adaptation Plan. Huge thanks to our endorsed climate champs AliciaMarie Belchak, Marshall Kilgore & David LaGrand for making it happen!

Whoa!! 👀 You can generally tell whether a campaign is serious on Day 1 (if not earlier) and friends, this is a *serious* campaign.

Y'allllllll 👏574 donors in 24 hours. This is BEFORE the public matching funds. Let's win this - let's elect @aparnafordc.bsky.social 🩷

I am SO excited that @aparnafordc.bsky.social is running for DC Council! I've organized with her & she's the real deal - and fighting for what actually matters. I just donated and, if you're a DC resident, your donation will be matched x5 w the public match! Join me? Let's win this!

“We’ve got to remember, if our work isn’t to make people’s lives more livable, we’ve lost our way.” @johnqua.bsky.social in @insideclimatenews.org, reflecting on @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's win. insideclimatenews.org/news/0307202...

This is why supporting local elections matters. Local races like Ravi's can be decided by a few hundred votes and they can get climate champions in positions to #MakePollutersPay!

BIG NEWS! Climate champions @katiebrennan.bsky.social and @ravibhalla.bsky.social won their primaries against one of the most entrenched political machines in the state. ⬇️

We need Virginia climate champions in office NOW who will resist Trump & Youngkin's attack's on climate progress and ensure we transition to clean energy! www.canarymedia.com/articles/cle...

We took to the streets in New Jersey to canvass for @ravibhalla.bsky.social & @katiebrennan.bsky.social! This is a competitive race that could be decided by a handful of votes and we need your help to contact voters!

Live in Virginia or have friends there? Share this map of climate progressives running for State Delegate with them! Primaries are June 17th and Virginia is gearing up to elect a Democratic trifecta!

Here's another way to take action! Host a climate giving circle in your community. 🎉 actionnetwork.org/forms/host-y...

Phonebank w us tonight or next week to elect some awesome progressive champs to state leg! It's gonna be fun and I promise it's better than doomscrolling!

Great day for a May Day rally 🌹✊ @mdcdsa.bsky.social @dcjwj.bsky.social @fedworkersunited.bsky.social @freedcproject.bsky.social

This Earth Day, electing local climate champions feels more pressing than ever. Here's our latest slate of climate champions. 🧵
