How did such a major decision happen behind closed doors? CPS Energy customers should be disappointed with this very un-public move from their public utility. https://t.co/98pGIIhRrq

San Antonio’s CPS Energy entered into a partnership with Modern Hydrogen. Hydrogen is often pitched as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels. However, a closer look shows us that making hydrogen from gas is not the game-changer its supporters claim. https://t.co/WEt1wxMuLQ

We're in week 4 of the government shutdown. FAA air traffic controllers missed paychecks. Staffing issues are impacting flights. It's past time for Republicans to come to the table and negotiate a budget that will protect Americans' access to health care.

With an administration in Washington, D.C. that’s more interested in protecting fossil fuel corporate profit and a Texas Legislature that’s at best indifferent to the crisis, climate action at the local level is even more critical. https://t.co/Ol6u8zU2lW

The Texas Energy Fund might sound nice and beneficial, but the details tell a different story, of a state government intent on using tax dollars to prop up the fossil fuel industry in its losing battle against renewable energy. #txlege

Virginia Gov. Youngkin & Texas Gov. Abbott have called the National Guard ahead of tomorrow's No Kings protests. How ironic: Peaceful nation-wide protests against authoritarianism are being met with an authoritarian, militarized response by the Trump regime and its lackeys.

Gov. Performative, R-Texas
Today, I directed the Dept. of Public Safety and National Guard to surge forces into Austin ahead of an Antifa-linked protest. Texas will NOT tolerate chaos. Anyone destroying property or committing acts of violence will be swiftly arrested. Law and order will be enforced.

Just had our first $1,000,000 month in Retail. I am the CEO of Portland Leather Goods. Within minutes my CMO @MacCoyMerkley called and said "When do you think we will get to our first $10,000,000 month?" He guessed two years. That is crazy. But I started doing the math...

You can say the same about @GregAbbott_TX, who scheduled a special election to fill the late Sylvester Turner's seat for November, an entire eight months after the congressman and former Houston mayor passed away.
Rep.-Elect Grijalva won her race weeks ago. But Speaker Johnson is refusing to swear her in. Johnson isn't working to stop the shutdown. He's not working to swear in members. What the hell is he doing for the American people? Absolutely nothing.
