Trump's EPA says it will stop calculating the public health value of air pollution regulations, instead solely focusing on costs to Big Business.

Like the rest of his deregulatory agenda, it's a gift for corporate donors and a disaster for the rest of us.

CT and RI families are already paying some of the highest electricity prices in the country. It made no sense to ban them from accessing the cheap, clean energy resources just off their coastline.
January 13, 2026 at 2:06 PM
Wisconsin Republicans just released a data center bill that would block access to cheaper, faster clean power. Why limit the options that would protect consumers from rising costs, unless you don’t actually care about affordability?

And from @evergreenaction.bsky.social, here's a policy package to bring down energy costs in New Jersey:

1. Getting clean energy projects connected to the grid
2. Data centers supplying their own affordable, clean energy
3. Adopting smart EV charging programs
4. Reining in utility profit margins

NEW: Gov. Shapiro just cut a bad deal with Senate Republicans—abandoning Pennsylvania’s participation in Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) and walking away from our strongest tool to cut pollution, lower energy bills, and create jobs. #PAleg

Democrats run on lowering costs through clean energy.

And they both win—by 20 points.

How can states keep making progress on sustainable transportation—even as the Trump admin rolls back climate action? Check out the latest episode of @volts.wtf and hear Evergreen’s senior transportation policy lead Liya Recthman dive into the tools and strategies at states' disposal.
Today on Volts: sustainable transportation policy is under comprehensive attack by the federal government, but states can soften the blow. Specifically, governors have a little-understood authority to transfer existing federal funds to EV charging, bike lanes, & transit. But time is running out!
Hey governors: you can salvage sustainable transportation, but you need to do it quick!
Liya Rechtman lays out the playbook for governors to salvage clean transportation using existing federal funds before it's too late.

Voters in VA and NJ sent a clear message: they’re done paying the price for politicians who put corporate profits ahead of people.

We look forward to working with @mikiesherrill.bsky.social and @abigailspanberger.com as they move to cut costs for families through homegrown, clean energy.
November 5, 2025 at 2:33 AM
"We're going to produce more energy, and we're going to lower costs—and we're going to do that by producing more energy here in Virginia."

That's the blueprint for how Democrat win big: connect clean energy to lower costs and homegrown power.

Congratulations @abigailspanberger.com 🎉

The same tech giants that are forcing you and me to pay to power their data centers through our electric bill apparently have no problem paying for Donald Trump to tear down parts of the White House so he can build a $300 million ballroom for himself.
October 23, 2025 at 8:37 PM
The economics are clear: The push to build fossil fuels to power data centers is going to hurt people and one way to address that harm is by demanding these centers be built with clean, cheap, fast-to-build energy sources like wind and solar. From @profgalloway.com

Families need relief. Communities need lower power bills.

Instead of working across the aisle to deliver help, Republicans shut down the government so that Trump could keep abusing power.
