Jeff Bezos paid $50 million for a wedding. He just got a $16 billion tax break. He just laid off 60,000 people.

Okay, this nonsense is getting old. The average family health plan now runs about $27,000 a year, with workers paying nearly $7,000 out-of-pocket, that’s triple your so-called $2,000 “relief.” Borrowing that from our kids is like tossing a deck chair off the Titanic. Stop lying to Americans.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.
