In 2021, @aoc.bsky.social and I introduced the Civilian Climate Corps for Jobs and Justice Act. We wanted to create millions of good union jobs to deliver a just and livable future for all. But the path wasn’t easy.
When it came time for Biden’s Build Back Better agenda we fought hard to make sure jobs, justice, and climate action were at the center. And when the fossil fuel industry tried to strip them out we said, “no climate, no deal.”
But that wasn’t the end of the road. We prevailed. And we passed the Inflation Reduction Act. The single largest climate investment in history. The CCC didn’t make it.
But we didn’t give up the fight. We celebrated the IRA’s historic investments AND we kept fighting for a CCC that delivered good-paying Union jobs to young people all across the country.
Did you know that every NASCAR Event pumps about 500,000 Tons of GHGs into the Sky? The Tires alone pump about 150,000 Tons of GHG Emissions and Pollutants into the Sky, Every NASCAR Event is a Carbon Bomb
The IRA does nothing to reduce GHG emissions. You cannot run a $25 Trillion economy based on 80% Fossil Fuel use and expect 0.15% of GDP investment per year to accomplish anything. In fact with 620 Million Acres of Oil Leases opened in the Gulf it is pretty much a Fossil Fuels Bill.
How dope would it be if you followed back one of your constituents who happens to also be a MA High School History Teacher trying to educate the next generation... 🙏
Been here long before her or your first skeet. And all about increased communication and realistic outreach. This election was ‘the boy who cried wolf’ regarding Dem fundraising. Dont ask 1000 times from 100 different texts, etc. That need the organizing you mention. Thanks for all you do.
Just tell me one thing. What can someone who is housebound, might be homeless soon, and disabled with Long Covid and/or Chronic Pain (they aren't sure) can do.
I WANT to do something but i can barely get out of my bed.
We have to have our own army it's in the constitution. An armed militia. We have to fight! Biden and Kamala are doing nothing they can leave the country. We're fucked! I'm ready to fight for my country!
We can let this happen!
I don’t want Bluesky to become political. Threads started out cool but then everything was politics and Diddy. It’s nice over here. Let’s keep it that way.
never joined twitter, joined blue sky because she seems like a leader we need right now. Too many civil servants forgot or never cared that they work for the people, not their own pockets.
I actually joined yesterday, but was thrilled to see her here. My son just graduated with a degree in EDS. Can’t find a job. What’s with that? Graduated from VTech
True, it's a disappointing result, but that's not the first time a common-sense prop has failed. It'll get put through yet again and pass eventually. Just like almost everywhere else in America, even in California, progress can take frustratingly long.
And don’t forget we have starters and feeds for resources too (mine is resources for resistance, immigration law, health insurance aid, abortion info, Indy media…)
If you search for the phrase starter pack you'll see at least some, if you click the ones that interest you, you will follow a bunch of people on that subject. There's a giant variety, from microbiologists to people who work with dogs, to progressive politicians.
Hi! If you go to my profile —you will see a list of starter packs (people to follow) and feeds (sort of an alt timeline) or you can keyword search starter packs here: https://blueskydirectory.com/starter-packs/all

Two days before, actually. #Swifties came same day. I knew @aoc.bsky.social would be along soon thereafter. Why? Nothing political. It's just that smart bitches fly together, that's all.
"People keep asking me why I think all 28 COP's have failed. It's because in 1995, at COP1 in Berlin, CO2 in the atmosphere was 359ppm. Today It's 427ppm.The COP's have done nothing." Alexandria Villasenor
Ed, please listen to your constituents #disabled by #ChronicPain. I & many others have written to you; you don’t seem to understand that those of us who require long term Rx #opioid meds ONLY got here after EVERY other option was tried & failed. You support taking away the only treatment left.
Why?

If you are following the "we lost because of the economy" narrative then I'm not interested.
The coastal elites need to spend some time in the HUGE evangelical church's that have taken over suburbia and Rural America to find out it's the religion, stupid.

Meanwhile, you and AOC could have raised hell to stop a genocide. Instead of support paying for it.
There is no excuse to have lost the election
