Protecting our environment shouldn’t be controversial. This is something both sides of the aisle must come together on. We all know that the climate is changing, and that it’s time to seek innovative and clean energy solutions to lower emissions.

We're just 4 cosponsors shy of having 100 House members signed on to the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, which puts a #PriceOnCarbon and gives money to households. @RepHaleyStevens is the latest cosponsor. Find out if your rep is a cosponsor: energyinnovationact.org/

The answer to taming the inflation caused by higher fuel prices is NOT to drill for more oil and gas. The answer is to kick the fossil fuel habit by transitioning to clean energy.

At his State of the Union, @POTUS said, "Let's cut energy costs for families an average of $500 a year by combating #ClimateChange..." It's time to pass a climate bill! #SOTU

With the latest #IPCC report, on thing is absolutely clear: We cannot afford to squander the opportunity to enact effective solutions to #ClimateChange. Senate must pass a bill, and it should include a #PriceOnCarbon. @bradplumer @zhonggg nytimes.com/2022/02/28/clima…

Replying to @RonWyden
Yes, it's time to end our economic and national security dependence on fossil fuels. The reasons to pass Carbon Fee and Dividend with Border Carbon Adjustments just keep growing! And the co-benefits are tremendous. carboncashback.org/benefits

Congress must pass a clean energy package as soon as possible not only to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, but our reliance on foreign oil and gas as well. Any opposition to doing so is now simply a commitment to relying on tyrants like Putin for decades to come.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has provided a stark reminder of the need to free ourselves from our dependence on oil and gas from countries ruled by despots like Vladimir Putin.

Shipping accounts for a considerable chunk of carbon emissions, but the industry is trying to clean things up. A #PriceOnCarbon is at the top of their list of ways to decarbonize, according to a statement from @WSC_shipping. freightwaves.com/?p=398957

We've got a planet on fire, a suffering workforce, and communities in need of investment. #BuildBackBetter is an important step to avert climate chaos, advance justice, and create good-paying, union jobs. The Senate must vote YES and pass this bill. We can’t afford inaction.

Jobs, justice, climate action. We can do all this with the #BuildBackBetter Act. We cannot stall any longer, and delay cannot be the demise of this package. Let's get this done by Christmas.

For decades, we've shied away from climate action. With the #BuildBackBetter Act, we're now on the brink of the boldest action to face our #ClimateCrisis in U.S. history. This is our moment. We have a responsibility to our children and theirs to get this across the finish line.

The United States has tackled global challenges and achieved great things – we can do the same on climate. It’s time for us to take the lead and pass #BuildBackBetter with even stronger climate provisions.
