The terrorists are the ones without masks. They’re the ones yelling “No!” or “Stop!” or “Shame!” or blowing whistles. Sometimes they brandish cameras at federal agents. These are just some of their diabolical tactics.

Virginia:
Statewide YES vote in April.
AND action in our state legislature NOW.
Read newsletters from your reps in Richmond and plan to attend town halls.
Hey Virginia! Listen to @abigailspanberger.com on redistricting. If we want to change the hellscape we’re living in we need every seat in Congress we can get. Please plan on voting yes.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

EV charging at the cell-phone waiting lot at the airport - such an obviously good place to provide a plug in.

Florida Power and Light - providing clean EV charging cheaper than the competition. Fast too - delivering at 230kW.

EV road trips getting easier. (This is our 7th VA- FL drive.)
Credit to Hilton for building a dozen chargers at this new hotel right on I-95 in NC. Charging while we sleep is the best!

This is the #Izembek. Trump has just signed off on destroying this magnificent wilderness for yet more fossil fuel extraction which scientists warn us must stop. We have the capacity to create such a different world. All we have to do is decide we want it. #nature #climate

'the only energy emergency is Donald Trump".
I appreciate my Senator's effort to undo the executive overreach on energy. Forcing a Senate floor vote showed us once again how Republicans refuse to protect their constituents and uphold the rules and Constitution.
Virginians want good jobs and lower energy costs. That’s why @heinrich.senate.gov and I are forcing a vote TODAY to challenge Trump’s corrupt, cost-raising, job-killing energy agenda.

Whether it’s your first car or your next car, choosing the right vehicle is an exciting journey—EVs can save you money, cut pollution & improve air quality. Federal tax incentives are available thru the end of the month + state & utility programs.

On leadership, kindness does matter. Enjoy this interview with New Zealand's former Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern. Even better is her memoir, sites.prh.com/a-different-... and she has a children's book, just published!
