We’re in Phoenix tonight for our second Extreme Weather People’s Hearing as Arizonans share how climate change-driven extreme weather and dangerous heat has impacted them. Trump's #PollutersFirst Agenda will only worsen the climate crisis and these impacts of extreme weather on our communities.

Coal pollution has poisoned the Diné and other Tribal communities for decades. Now the Trump administration and their allies in Congress are pushing a bill that expands mining and short-circuits environmental reviews. This must be stopped.

Republicans are pushing a bill that prioritizes polluting gas plants, while affordable clean energy projects get stuck in line. We should be clearing the way for clean, reliable energy—not blocking it. @energycommerce.bsky.social

#ExtremeWeatherSZN brought to you by Trump and Lee Zeldin's #PollutersFirst Agenda. Climate pollution is making heat waves more intense and frequent, exposing our communities to more dangerous heat - take action against Trump's rollbacks. #ExtremeWeatherWednesday actionnetwork.org/petitions/op...

The Republicans' Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill is exactly what their fossil fuel megadonors paid for. They're selling out American families, all to help Big Oil sell more gasoline.

“I care about climate action because I don’t want a disaster to destroy your community too.” - Thank you Councilwoman Maggie Ullman for speaking up on the impacts of extreme weather. Without urgent climate action, #ExtremeWeatherSZN will worsen and continue to harm our communities.

Summer may be just getting started, but #ExtremeWeatherSZN is year-round. Climate pollution is making severe weather more frequent, intense and dangerous, and without critical climate protections, our communities will suffer.

157+ million people in the US are under extreme weather alerts. Meanwhile, the Trump admin is attacking science—backed by the same fossil fuel interests driving the climate crisis. Stay informed & take action: dangerseason.ucs.org 🔥 #DangerSeason

These clean energy projects represented thousands of good-paying jobs and more affordable energy for Americans. This is a result of Trump's war on clean energy and his payoff to Big Oil — and it'll only get worse if Republicans pass their giveaway to billionaires. What a disgrace.

If we don’t stop the pollution fueling the climate crisis more people will suffer from extreme weather events like Hurricane Helene. That’s why we were in Asheville last week for our Extreme Weather People’s Hearing - to highlight the very real impacts of inaction on the climate crisis.

Our highlights from this year so far 👀

The Trump administration is planning to force two dirty Michigan coal plants — including one responsible for more arsenic water pollution than any other U.S. power plant — to stay open. Not only is this devastating for public health, but it would cost ratepayers hundreds of millions of dollars.

2024 was the hottest year on record worldwide and here in Arizona we continue to heat up and break records. Extreme weather devastates communities. Now, more than ever, we need to take action on climate change. That's why we're joining #ShowYourStripes Day to remind us: #ClimateCantWait.

Thank you, Senator @SenMarkKelly, for supporting the Aerial Firefighting Enhancement Act! 🙌🔥 As climate change fuels longer and more dangerous wildfire seasons, legislation like this is essential to protect our communities and our future. #ClimateCantWait 🔗 t.co/uR3q1Tod7O

Stories like Sam's are becoming too common as climate change increases the frequency and severity of extreme weather. And instead of taking action to protect us, Lee Zeldin's EPA continues to put #PollutersFirst. Tell Zeldin he doesn't have our support: actionnetwork.org/petitions/op...

We’re in Asheville tonight for our first Extreme Weather People's Hearing to hear from North Carolinians impacted by Hurricane Helene last year. Climate change will only make extreme weather events like this one more frequent and severe, so we must act now. #ClimateCantWait

The Republican Finance draft is a head fake and farce. It increases energy costs. Period. The quick phaseout for solar and wind alone will make energy more expensive, make it harder to compete with China, and kill thousands upon thousands of jobs across the country, mostly in Republican districts.

Senate Republicans had a choice and chose wrong. This bill still amounts to a repeal of clean energy credits that will cost their own constituents jobs and hundreds more on their energy bills. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/c...

I joined 8,000 environmental leaders to push back on Trump's “Big, Ugly Betrayal." The GOP plan raises taxes on energy, increases costs for families and businesses, and kills hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs to give tax breaks to billionaires. We won't stop fighting back.

No matter where we live or what we look like, most of us want to breathe clean air and live in a healthy climate. But these rollbacks will expose America's families to more toxic pollution and climate disasters.

FEMA’s acting director might not know, but hurricane season is here. And the Trump administration is leaving our communities less supported and less protected.

Just a day before it was set to retire for economic reasons, the Trump administration ordered a dirty Pennsylvania power plant to continue operating. This will do nothing to lower costs for us and will only keep energy expensive and make our air dirtier. Trump is Making America Polluted Again.

Thank you Senator Mark Kelly for supporting the Aerial Firefighting Enhancement Act. This would help the U.S. better respond to wildfire season, which is being made longer and more dangerous due to climate change - underscoring the need for bills like these. www.kelly.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...

If the U.S. power sector was a country, it would be the 6th-largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world. Despite this, Trump's EPA is set to claim that power plant emissions "do not contribute significantly to dangerous pollution” in order to remove pollution protections to benefit Big Oil.
