In case you missed it – President Biden gave an interview to the Weather Channel, released yesterday, in which he first seemed to forget whether he’d declared a climate emergency, and then when asked to clarify if he has issued an emergency declaration, Biden said: “Practically speaking, yes.” This is a lie. Biden has not …

July 31 update – It’s official: July 2023 is the hottest month on record and this is clearly a climate emergency.

For more than 2 years, we’ve marched, rallied, protested, and risked arrest all to demand the Biden administration end the era of fossil fuels.

June 1 update – Last night the House passed the dirty debt ceiling deal with no amendments. About 100 Democrats voted against the “no amendments” rule before they voted for the dirty deal.

Last year we stopped Manchin’s zombie dirty deal not once, or twice, but three times. But it’s still wasn’t enough. Fossil fueled fascists in Congress have been hard at work trying to get the zombie plan known as “permitting reform” back up and shuffling.
