With #GasPrices soaring, you’d think DC would help us save on fuel. Instead @NHTSAgov finalized a rollback for higher fuel costs, more oil dependence & fewer savings for families struggling with #Affordability People of Faith & Conscience demand a clean future with #CleanerCars!

Trump promised to reduce your #energy costs Instead he: ❌Started a war driving oil past $100/barrel ❌Killed EV tax credits ❌Rolled back fuel efficiency standards ❌Added tariffs to everything #GasPrices in CA are typically way higher than the national average. Enough is enough

Breaking news: The average price of gasoline in the U.S. is now more than $4 a gallon, the first time it has reached that level since 2022. nyti.ms/4m6Ri1M

Average Gasoline Price Hits $4 in U.S., a ‘Headache’ for Drivers and Trump

A month since the first U.S.-Israeli attacks and Iran’s response effectively shut off Persian Gulf oil, drivers are paying significantly more to fill up.

🌞The sun gives its light, warmth & energy to all people. Give renters and working class families access to #solar panels and lower utility bill! ✊ Support #SB868 and together we can increase access to plug in, balcony solar #ClimatePolicy #CleanEnergy npr.org/2026/03/12/nx-s1-573…

Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them

Utilities are convincing lawmakers around the U.S. to delay bills that would allow people to buy solar panels, plug them into an outlet and begin generating electricity.

“In a state where the next outage is never far away, #EVs offer something rare: cleaner air and greater resilience,” says Ken Alex at CLEE in @LATimesOpinion 🚗⚡️Read more: latimes.com/opinion/story/20… #California #ClimateSolutions #CleanEnergy #CALeg @AssemblyDems @CASenateDems

Contributor: In wildfire country, EVs aren’t a grid problem — they’re a power solution
