🚨 Our #PublicLands aren’t for sale. Last night, Rep. Amodei joined a late-night amendment to force the sell-off of thousands of acres of #NV's public lands, without public input.

We’re calling it what it is: a betrayal of Nevadans, our outdoor economy, and our way of life.

The @environmentalvoter.bsky.social has "identified a dramatic gender gap among climate voters in all 21 states studied ... this gender gap is most pronounced among the youngest voters (aged 18-24) and among Black voters."

Seems women are becoming more pro-social & men are heading the other way.

"The administration’s plan would 'eliminate all funding for climate, weather, and ocean laboratories and cooperative institutes.'"
BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency.

Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.
