Hard at work #CCL2024

WE DID IT 🎉 Thanks to everyone who made it out to DC this year for our Summer Conference & Lobby Day. We had an absolute blast learning and lobbying with all our volunteers!

A number of Citizens' Climate Lobby volunteers asked me about bipartisanship - and how we can build relationships in these polarized times. It's true that it feels like we're more divided than ever. But, if you stop and talk with folks with whom you disagree, you may find more in common

The PROVE IT Act has dropped in the U.S. House of Representatives! We are thrilled that this important climate legislation is moving forward — and that it has robust bipartisan support, too. curtis.house.gov/news/documents…

7. Nothing I’ve ever done in my life has given me more faith in this country than Tangle. I bet on people wanting to get out of their bubbles in 2019, at the height of partisanship. I bet on ppl wanting something better. It was a damn good bet.

As promised, here's an explainer on what's in the bipartisan permitting bill that Senate ENR Committee is voting on tomorrow. TLDR, It's a great compromise bill where no one will love each detail. Good for energy affordability, reliability, and climate. bipartisanpolicy.org/explainer/the-…

Me: "It feels like we go through this government funding shit every year." Tangle:

"In high conflict, people are stuck in the same repetitive, negative, hostile emotions," says Amanda Ripley at #CCL2025 in conversation with Alex Marianyi. "In good conflict, you have anger, frustration, sadness — and there's also flashes of surprise, curiosity, even humor."
