Did he forget the KMCO explosion?

.Speaker Mike Johnson & House Republicans want to undo President Biden’ pause on new LNG export approvals just to keep Big Oil’s profits rolling in, no matter the expense to American consumers, public health, or national security. Our leaders must stop this reckless attack.

Jesse doesn't know if $20/hr adds up to $100K per year or just $40K per year, he just knows that either way, it's too much money for working people.

But millionaires like Jesse desperately need tax breaks, amirite?

This is ridiculous!

Requiring better disclosure of financial risk due to climate change is basic common sense to protect American investors.

What’s “Beyond Scope” is House Republicans' quest to prevent any accountability for those who would burn the planet down for a few bucks.

It's time to stop thinking of climate change like it's some sort of natural disaster. Perhaps it's time to start seeing it as a CRIME against the people of this planet.
