NEW: In #Ohio, oil & gas lobbyists helped draft a #CarbonCapture bill that could let them bury dangerous CO₂ waste & shift liability to the public. Uncovered records show industry wrote talking points, handpicked sponsors & shut out critics. #CCS

Newly obtained public records show that the industry has worked hard to ensure the legislation prioritizes their interests over climate change concerns.

Companies say the two-year exemption will give them time to comply. Environmental groups suspect it is an interim step before doing away with the rule entirely.

Utilities are passing data center energy costs to regular consumers, with secretive contracts and billion-dollar projects driving up bills.

@AGLizMurrill @ICEgov Louisianans do NOT support the federal government rounding people up without warrants. We don’t support military in our street or flash bangs lobbed at civilians

After careful consideration, the City of Glendale has decided to end its agreement with U.S. Homeland Security/ICE to house federal immigration detainees. This local decision reflects our core values: public safety, transparency, and community trust.

AAE's Logan Burke talks to @RyleeKramertv about our state energy efficiency program — which helps residents & businesses reduce their energy bills. The @la_psc vote today could kill the program before it has a chance to make a difference. https://t.co/UIsbpdlXTB

Why do Louisiana homeowners pay more for insurance than other states? Lots of reasons, which I've written about: Climate change, inflation, housing stock that's unprepared for storms. But here's a piece of it, from State Farm's filing on why they charge higher profit here.

Let’s get real: utilities make money when you use more electricity. So why would we let them run programs meant to help you use less? That’s exactly what’s on the table at the @la_psc meeting this Wed, April 16.

Donald Trump has shown no interest in leading on behalf of the American people. The @SierraClub, along with its millions of members and supporters nationwide, will continue to stand up to Trump in the streets, in courts, in townhalls, and in state capitols across this country.
For all his talking, ranting, and rambling tonight, Donald Trump still failed to detail a single policy he has advanced or action he has taken to protect or help American families and our communities. Read our statement on Trump's address: https://t.co/wGL5lnzJoW
