    BREAKING: Virginia Gov. Youngkin (R) has withdrawn the state from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, which targets carbon emissions from power plants. Impeccable timing on a day where the East Coast is enveloped in smoke from Canadian wildfires. Absolutely shameful.
    Gov. Youngkin tweet: "Todayโ€™s commonsense decision by the Air Board to repeal RGGI protects Virginians from the failed program that is not only a regressive tax on families and businesses across the Commonwealth, but also does nothing to reduce pollution."

    The only way we can save our planet is to elect strong leaders who will advance just & equitable solutions to the climate crisis. Thatโ€™s why LCVAF is proud to endorse @JoeBiden for President and work together to protect our families' health and future.

    A new era of #ClimateAction is starting. With Majority Leader @SenSchumerโ€™s commitment to bold, urgent climate action, the Senate can finally take the lead on legislation to address the climate crisis and environmental justice.
    โ€œThe Senate will forcefully, consistently, and urgently address the greatest threat to this country, and to our planetโ€”climate change." - Senate Majority(!) Leader Chuck Schumer

    Thanks @BetoORourke for discussing your ambitious plan to #ActOnClimate. The next president must be ready to go on day one. #ChangetheClimate2020 #CNNTownHall
    Beto's bold climate plan mobilizes $5 trillion โ€” spurred by the largest investment towards fighting climate change in history โ€” and guarantees we achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 while getting halfway there by 2030. #CNNTownHall

    This election offers our last, best chance to address the climate crisis. We commend @BetoORourke for offering this detailed climate plan. All #2020 candidates must put forward ambitious plans to address the crisis on day one of a new presidency. #ChangeTheClimate2010

    We shouldn't even need to say this, but we agree @ewarren, "No coal lobbyists for head of the EPA." #ChangeTheClimate2020 #WarrenTownHall

    LCVAF is honored to endorse @TeamPelosi in her re-election campaign to represent #CA12. As the most pro-environment Speaker in history, Speaker Pelosi has led the fight against Trumpโ€™s anti-environment agenda and her leadership is critical to boldly and justly #ActOnClimate.

    "We have to face the reality of science. Time is running out." @SpeakerPelosi is absolutely right. And the fires in the West are just the latest #ClimateCrisis signal โ€” the exhaustion of our firefighters, collapsing ecosystems, & rising seas are evidence of decades of inaction.

    .@BernieSandersโ€™ Green New Deal focuses on creating family-sustaining jobs in the clean energy economy & investing in frontline communities. Sanders outlines a plan to #ActOnClimate, decarbonize power & transportation sectors by 2030 and achieve net zero climate pollution by 2050

    ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ What a crew of environmental champs.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Weโ€™re already seeing the change that having a pro-environment majority can and will have on our countryโ€™s ability to #ActOnClimate and seek #EnvironmentalJustice - we're excited to see what's next.
    I couldnโ€™t be more proud of our newest Democratic Senators: The Majority Makers!
    Senator Schumer and Senator Cortez Masto stand with the newest Democratic Senators.

    Congratulations @valdemings! Rep. Demings is a strong supporter of climate action and environmental justice, and has worked to protect the Everglades from drilling and strengthen solar energy infrastructure in Florida. #LCVAF is proud to support her for #FLSen in November.

    BIG: @HouseDemocrats have passed the Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act, which protects working families against price gouging. It's unacceptable that Big Oil continues to collect record profits while #RippingOffAmericans. The Senate must pass this bill ASAP.
