In his latest blog, UCS’ Steven Higashide raises the next opportunity for the Senate to get it right by rejecting the budget bill that would benefit oil companies and wealthy households while punishing clean vehicle owners.

Microplastics have now been found in the human heart, lungs, brain, testes, placentas, and breastmilk. Babies are being born pre-polluted by plastics. We MUST reduce the huge amount of plastic being produced and put into the marketplace and our bodies.

📰UCS’s Rachel Cleetus was featured in the @nytimes.com's Quote of the Day, in a piece highlighting how the Trump administration stands alone in its climate denial. Read the article: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/c...

Excess carbon dioxide from fossil-fuel use is shrinking the upper atmosphere. New research found that if emissions don’t fall, only about half of its current capacity for satellites could operate safely by this century’s end. texasclimatenews.org/2025/03/22/s...

Good morning to the world across the pond and any other late nighters in USA: Came across this very sweet sight on one of my walks this past week 💖.

George Floyd should be alive today. He should be raising his daughter, living his life. 5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags. His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.” Let’s stop failing her, and him. Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

Key dates to remember: May 2 - 4: Game On! To End Lupus May 4 - 6: National Lupus Advocacy Summit May 10: Put on Purple for World Lupus Day Watch this page for updates throughout the month and ways to get involved. 💜

From my first walk outside since the storms in PA and a week of rain

A new selfie I took after my hour walk yesterday evening. I had yet to do one this year.

As a child, the drawing I made of my friend Lucy inspired Dad to write “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.” In 2009, Lupus sadly claimed Lucy’s life. I became a Global Ambassador for the Lupus Foundation of America in 2011. May is Lupus Awareness Month: www.lupus.org/get-involved 🙏🏼💜😘

National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day is on April 30. To bring awareness to the day, the Up First newsletter is sharing some stories from readers about how their pet has impacted their lives.

The “criminal” charges against a 24-year-old woman in GA, who was arrested after miscarrying at 19 weeks have been dropped. “Continuing prosecution is not legally sustainable and not in the interest of justice,” the prosecutor stated.

Finally signs of spring in southwestern PA that turned out to be a good day for an almost hour walk.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

So true. That goes for each and everyone of us! 🙏

The IRS agreed to share legally protected taxpayer information with DHS and ICE. Federal law clearly protects taxpayer privacy. This agreement is illegal. This is an assault on every single taxpayer's rights and will destroy lives.

Musk may be leaving the admin, but there's every reason to expect a continuation of the mindless destruction he perpetrated. This will not eliminate the conflicts of interest and policies designed by and for the billionaire corporate class. Our fight continues.

15 years ago, The Supreme Court allowed billionaires & Corporate SuperPACs to dominate our elections. This year, Elon Musk spent nearly $300 million on the 2024 election. Senator Shaheen's constitutional amendment would fight corruption & overturn Citizens United.

All over the country right now Big Tech companies are entering communities to build AI data centers & raising electric prices for families. These companies are getting massive tax breaks, creating very few jobs & causing serious environmental harm within neighborhoods.

NEWS: Congresswoman Summer Lee (@repsummerlee.bsky.social) announces the creation of the environmental justice caucus, which will fight to get money out of politics, address environmental racism and harm, end cyclical disenfranchisement, find solutions, etc. www.youtube.com/live/KFffa70...

The volume of scam accounts is again on the rise, so I wanted to share my only authorised accounts on each platform. If it’s not listed in this reel, it’s not me (or my charity). There are no “fan cards” or “memberships” to buy. Please don’t engage — just report to Bluesky & block them.🙏🏼

Billionaires don’t have a constitutional right to own your government. Today @khanna.house.gov and I unveiled the Abolish Super PACs Act to get money out of politics and restore democracy for, of, and by the people. We must make it harder for billionaires + corporate interests to buy our politics.
