‘Mine, Baby, Mine’: Trump Officials Offer $625 Million to Rescue Coal

Coal is the past, clean energy is the present and future.

Not that we’re counting 👀 but the Evening for the Environment is 22 days away! 🗓️

Hear from @lcv.org president, Pete Maysmith, Maine advocates on clean energy, Wabanaki priorities, PFAS, and more — plus a poetry reading by Samaa Abdurraqib. 🌲🖊

“Some Republicans are adding fuel to the fire by pushing to sell off public lands to pay for these tax cuts for the ultra wealthy.”

Senator Hickenlooper & @senatorheinrich.bsky.social led an amendment to protect our public lands from being sold to the highest bidder.

Republicans blocked it.

On April 4th @12pm, @maineconservation.bsky.social (MCV) is hosting “A Remonstrance and the 1942 Transcripts”, a valuable discussion with Hon. Donna Loring (Penobscot Nation) and Hon. Eric Mehnert (Penobscot Nation).
