We're with you, Senator!
If we want to reduce carbon emissions, combat climate change, and incentivize innovation, we must put a price on carbon. Who’s with me?

It's a beautiful day in Austin today, and when I walk outside my office into the gentle sunlight, it occurs to me how wonderful and comforting it must be to think the climate crisis is all a hoax.

Today we're grateful for the 2,238 LTEs, 670 opeds, 167,942 contacts to POTUS & Congress & most of all, the CCLers riding the Congressional roller coaster with us. Happy Thanksgiving! #happythanksgiving #thanksgiving #climate #climatechange #carbontax #grassrootsclimate
Who says it doesn’t pay to address #climate? We surprised trick-or-treaters with #CarbonCashbacks that could pass in the budget bill THIS YEAR & lower emissions 50% in 10 yrs. The Senate will decide re: a #PriceOnCarbon this week. Call to say u support it➡️cclusa.org/senate-call

Putting a #PriceOnCarbon is the biggest & boldest step we can take to respond to climate change. My bill, HR 2307, the Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act, will deliver near zero carbon emissions by 2050 & will rebate 100% of the polluters' payments to America's families.
The White House is scrambling to find Plan B options for its climate change legislation, after Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia said he won't back a broader spending bill with Biden's signature clean electricity program. nyti.ms/3FTf7EA

Much sooner than expected, we have reached the point where #ClimateChange is outpacing our ability to recover and adapt. Congress MUST act now to bring emissions down. Measures enacted must include a #PriceOnCarbon. @cflav @bradplumer @ABarnardNYT nytimes.com/2021/09/02/clima…

One of our leading climate scientists, @MichaelEMann, says we need a #PriceOnCarbon to transition away from fossil fuels. Tell your representative to include this essential policy in the reconciliation bill. Our online tool makes it easy: ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ cclusa.org/house

Well, here's a great way to get your senators' attention: Speak to them directly in an op-ed like this CCL volunteer did in the Fort Myers @thenewspress. #PriceOnCarbon #ClimateChange @marcorubio @SenRickScott news-press.com/story/opinion…

Great and comprehensive piece in @forbes about the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act. "What more could anyone ask for? Fee and dividend is the single, must-have policy for achieving net zero emissions by 2050." #PriceOnCarbon #ClimateChange forbes.com/sites/johncumbers…

Very interesting. If just the *possibility* of a carbon tax can shift corporate investments to reduce carbon footprints, imagine what actually enacting a #PriceOnCarbon can do. @AbbySmithDC #ClimateChange washex.am/3x1goEZ
WHOA! 25 current & former elected Republicans in Utah express support for #PriceOnCarbon in @DeseretNews: "We support a carbon dividends approach that puts a fee on carbon emissions and returns all the money to the American people in dividend checks." deseret.com/opinion/2021/6/4…

Ask Congress to tackle #ClimateChange by enacting a #CarbonCashback. H.R.2307 would cut emissions by 30% in just 5 years. 😮 To help everyone afford clean energy, families would get a cashback each month: energyinnovationact.org/ Write to Congress: citizensclimatelobby.org/wri…
