While @theestallion's Hot Girl Summer may not be about degrees, but #HotFERCSummer certainly is. Record temperatures in the West, wildfires & flash floods are all the direct result of our failure to decarbonize as quickly as we must. https://t.co/HP89EsFieA

Chicago's very own @Skilling knows it better than anyone — from flash flooding to derechos, extreme weather is devastating Illinois communities. I was incredibly proud to join him in a discussion on why we need to take #ClimateAction bold enough to accomplish what science demands https://t.co/DY5sP0rHBX

4. Is there a Hot Fossil Fuel Summer? Yeah, that’s canceled. ❌

Where did the concept of #HotFERCSummer come from? @FERC is not used to the spotlight, but for those serious about fighting the #ClimateCrisis, it should be. It ensures our energy markets remain efficient & reliable which means it’s super critical to a clean energy transition.2/

But, like, what is Hot FERC summer? #HotFERCSummer is a celebration of our nation’s regulatory body that has helped us achieve our clean energy goals so far, and one that we need to make sure that @POTUS nominates a new commissioner so it can stay at its full strength. 3/

3. Why am I not seeing Hot FERC summer everywhere? #HotFERCSummer is just starting, but it affects everything. Flipping a light switch and having confidence your light bulb will turn on? That’s #HotFERCSummer! Seeing wind farms and solar panels being built? Yep, that too.

Am I doing this right, @rebexxxa @theestallion @NICKIMINAJ?? Having declared this a ~Hot @FERC Summer~ here are answers to 7 questions about #HotFERCSummer you were too embarrassed to ask. THREAD ⤵️ https://t.co/l1BefPwQMZ

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - @FERC is THE most important federal agency when it comes to tackling the #ClimateCrisis. Here’s what I mean when I say it’s #HotFERCSummer. ⬇️ https://t.co/q4gE2JQlRP

RT @SecretaryPete: Every time we help somebody take quality public transit, we’re helping meet our climate goals. https://t.co/peqiQeZAka

Democracy works best when it's in person. I was incredibly excited to meet with so many of you and answer your questions this past weekend. https://t.co/u4f32ecDVw

Today, I was incredibly excited to welcome @SecretaryPete to Illinois. He understands our need for 21st-century infrastructure, and we’re working together to build a cleaner, cheaper energy grid & ensure Illinoisans have access to better public transit. https://t.co/ABlDD6f90k

This is a fantastic idea, @RepUnderwood!

If you love the planet, if you care about public health, heck, if you love free and fair markets and limited government intervention, you should see the need to get rid of these harmful handouts. https://t.co/xbczFIaMiW

It’s almost impossible to overstate how wrong it is that our tax dollars go to subsidizing big oil and gas. This needs to stop. https://t.co/yIwrJpYak5

Fossil fuels are causing the #ClimateEmergency and have horrific health impacts. Researchers at @harvard recently found that air pollution from fossil fuels accounted for nearly 1 in 5 global deaths in 2018 alone. https://t.co/P78HBszw4x

IMF estimates that the US provides in excess of $650 billion of direct & indirect subsidies to fossil fuels annually. That’s only a little less than what we spent on *Medicare* before the pandemic, and is roughly the same size as our defense budget. That’s absolutely wrong

.@POTUS agrees, the federal government shouldn’t give handouts to big oil and gas. To unity our energy markets, lower emissions, and protect public health, we must #EndFossilFuelSubsidies for good!

I’m glad the majority of the House and Senate were able to come together and get this done.

With the #AmericanRescuePlan passed and signed into law, here’s a breakdown of funding headed to classrooms and families across Illinois: ‍Childcare: $1,297,000,000 Head Start: $39,664,000 K-12: $5,054,988,000 Higher ed: $1,262,499,000

BREAKING: The House just passed the bipartisan #DreamAndPromiseAct, establishing a path to lawful permanent residence status for 700,000 American Dreamers including—including more than 33,000 Illinoisans.

Since 1994, the Violence Against Women Act has been a lifeline to the 1 in 3 women in the U.S. who experience domestic violence, 1 in 5 who are raped, and one in six who are victims of stalking. But it needs to be updated and renewed, and that’s exactly what we did today. https://t.co/T0358sTzF7
