Dark money put last three Justices on the Court and sends fleets of "amici" undisclosed into cases, and NOW he’s worried about “meddling”? Heaven help us. https://t.co/ZbyZrStcu5

Wonderful to see Brown University’s own Bob Brulle quoted so extensively. Bob’s work is essential to understanding our ‘Lost Decade’ of climate failure the fossil fuel industry caused — bought and paid for. https://t.co/tdpoCY45cd

At @NVInstitute after a week of gun violence in Providence. There are way too many illegal guns on the streets. We have to break the back of the NRA and pass commonsense gun safety laws. https://t.co/moR5WNcs0z
Congratulations to my friend Martin Heinrich on getting his #MethaneCRA passed in the Senate. @exxonmobil didn’t endorse it, but once we’re done, they’ll have to comply with new, tougher regulations.
