Suzie Wiles needs some help thinking of ideas to lower gas prices. Any suggestions? How about:
• Don't bomb Iran.
• Restore fuel economy standards.
• Offer rebates to people who want an EV but can't yet afford one.
Even Benedict Bridgerton knows coal is not the path forward so why is the Trump admin insisted on reviving this extremely polluting and expensive industry??

CAP's expert, Greta Bedekovics, answers the most googled questions about the anti-voter SAVE Act and the SAVE America Act.
It's unpatriotic for the Trump administration to intentionally censor and rewrite Black history on National Park Service sites. Black history is American history.
MUST WATCH: Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) IGNORES this Wisconsin teacher's concerns about rising costs and the impact Trump's tariffs have on his community.
If America is “the hottest country,” it’s because of record and deadly heat waves and climate disasters, not because Trump is rebuilding our economy. 173,000 clean energy jobs have been lost or put on hold because he chose Big Oil over US workers.
When Trump says he likes the way this economy is running, it's because he likes making you pay coal and gas execs more money.
Trump said he'd cut energy prices in half. Electricity is up 13 percent. What gives?
Trump's promises to lower energy prices for working families ring hollow from a president who promised to cut energy costs by 50% while instead driving them up ⬆️ 13% in his first year. #SOTU
Voters want data centers in their community to be powered by clean energy, not polluting fossil fuels
This one is a keeper
This week, Republicans in Congress are trying to pass two bills — HR 4758 and HR 4626 — that would eliminate energy efficiency standards that saved American families $6,000 on their utility bills over the last decade.
Trump's unplugged from the reality of utility costs.
It was a pleasure co-authoring our latest piece with @taotaotasi.bsky.social @kayeeendra.bsky.social in time for Black History Month. Please read how the Trump Administration is Intentionally Erasing Black History in America

BREAKING: The House passed a voter suppression bill called the SAVE Act.
The bill requires every voter to present an ID & a passport or original birth certificate to register to vote.
This will stop millions of Americans who don't have these documents on hand from voting.
RFK Jr. claims the Trump administration has made progress on its “Make America Healthy Again” agenda, yet Trump’s EPA is stripping away lifesaving protections—exposing more than 9.5 million Americans to toxins tied to cancer, autism, and other lifelong health concerns.
A federal judge ruled the Energy Department violated the law when Secretary Chris Wright handpicked five researchers who reject the scientific consensus on climate change to work in secret on a sweeping government report on global warming.
Trump is fighting the wrong fight in the Arctic—his focus should be on addressing climate change, not controlling Greenland.
Instead of delivering on President Trump's promise to "Make America Healthy Again," his administration is advancing policies that remove environmental protections and expose millions of children to harmful toxins—all to boost Big Oil's profits. https://ampr.gs/4bUiRZ9
NEW: President Trump promised to protect kids' health. Instead, EPA Head Lee Zeldin is rigging the system in favor of corporate polluters, exposing 2M+ kids to toxins & chemicals tied to asthma, autism, ADHD & cancer and delivering a gut-punch to MAHA goals: www.americanprogress.org/article/how-...
Excellent reporting by @theguardian.com on our new @americanprogress.bsky.social report and how EPA's corporate capture and environmental rollbacks are undercutting the MAHA agenda, endangering the health of kids, families and communities: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
Trump recently urged lawmakers to pass the SAVE Act—here's how this dangerous legislation would block millions of Americans from voting.
Our ability to compete, respond, solve, and protect is diminished when our government science expertise is devalued by our leaders.

This past weekend's winter storm was a stark reminder of the threat extreme temperatures pose to our aging electric grid infrastructure—we need to invest in the electric grid and clean energy sources to keep Americans safe.
Today, President Trump’s withdrawal of the United States from the Paris Agreement becomes official. It’s a step backward for American leadership.
We're about to see a major winter storm test power grids across the country—it doesn't have to be this way. Investing in a diverse array of clean energy sources can save lives and Americans’ wallets: https://ampr.gs/4bh4ttE
