Yesterday, we brought to a paused our three day sit-in at @GovKathyHochul’s office in Albany. Over 200 people participated. Over 18 elders were arrested by police with trumped up charges of “criminal trespass.” It’s time for her to sign the #ClimateSuperfund Act! 🧵

We need @GovKathyHochul to sign the #ClimateChange Superfund Act to make Big Oil — not taxpayers — pay for climate-related damages. On 12/11, @NYPIRG and our coalition partners rallied at the NYS Capitol to #MakePollutersPay! Visit nypirg.org/makepolluterspay to take #ClimateAction.

It's time to put pressure on @GovKathyHochul to #MakePollutersPay, and that means it's time to head to Albany! We're joining @ThirdActOrg and so many other wonderful groups from across the climate movement for a multi-day sit-in to get the Climate Change Superfund Act signed, and there's a bus leaving NYC on Tuesday morning! We'd love to see you there - RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/new…

Love voting with my kids. River is overseas playing professional hockey, (so mailed in his ballot) but King is with me holding it down. So beautiful doing our family tradition of voting together. God is good!

I’m here in S. Philly to canvass for Harris/Walz with two fellow Quakers with @ThirdActOrg because for the next three days we are laser focused on the margin of effort. Get off your anxiety couch, friends, and go join a phone bank or a canvass. No excuses. I also hate this.

"The reason we're here is that TIAA is using your retirement money to break down the ecosystems this planet depends on." said @billmckibben at the #TIAADivest rally September 24th. Watch speakers from Arkansas, Brazil & NY break it down for you! youtube.com/watch?v=Izeizw39…… @TIAA

The smile when you just spoke to a Trump voter about their climate anxiety, and now they're voting for Harris. @KamalaHQ we've said it many times, and now we're hearing it at the doors — climate action is a winning message in PA.
