Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · Jun 8

To be in public office right now is to constantly ask yourself: How do I make sure I'm standing on the right side of history?

There's a simple answer.

The wrong side of history will always tell you to be afraid - the right side of history will always expect you to be brave.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Even when the political winds shift, science must keep moving forward.
That’s why @AGU and @ametsoc are stepping up with a first-of-its-kind special collection on climate change in the U.S.—across 29+ peer-reviewed journals. 🌍📚

Demand action. Not “answers.” What are you wanting answers to? Answers that will twist the truth and delay real action? Stop framing statements like we are waiting for explanations. We are wanting action to stop that which is plain for all to see.

NEW: Fossil fuel firms like Chevron and Exxon owe the world trillions of dollars. Today in @nature.com, @jsmankin.bsky.social and I show economic losses from rising heat waves directly traceable to these firms, providing scientific support for climate accountability.

Looks like Prohect 2025 is pushing on. The EPA plans to end long-standing rules requiring polluters to report climate-warming emissions.

Trump’s EPA Plans to Stop Collecting Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data From Most Polluters

Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Agree with Diane. Leaving people without heat in places like Minnesota is unhealthy, unkind, unethical, destroys a person’s only shelter, etc. Thank you @smith.senate.gov for fighting for our neighbors where you can.
Big fights everywhere…keep it going and make sure they follow through.

Hey all. Please call your reps and get these tariffs under the control of Congress again and erased from the books.
We need housing. We are looking at 25%+ construction increases with tariffs. No one wins in a trade war.

Elizabeth Warren @warren.senate.gov · Apr 5

As markets melt down around the world, Congress could act right now to prevent an economic collapse before markets open on Monday.

The only thing standing in the way is a few spineless Republicans.

While no places in the Contiguous U.S. had a record warmest March, nearly everywhere was warmer than normal and a very large area was much warmer than normal.

Thank you, @smith.senate.gov !!! 🙌🏼 This matters. Keep it going.

Marcy Conrad Nutt @marcyconradnutt.bsky.social · Apr 1

This matters. I hope a parade of senators do this and start to slow and stop the government in protest. We need hope out here. And the Senator “filibustering” by reading our letters matters. It’s important to watch him impacted by what he is reading, too. Thank you.

Sen. Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov · Mar 31

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
