New ad from the Harris campaign on reproductive freedom, ahead of the VP's speech in Texas on Friday. This is a very tough one to watch, but it's incredibly important to. Thank you so much to Ondrea and Ceasar for trusting us to share their story.

FDR identified regulatory capture brilliantly in this 1932 speech, when public utility commissions were only, what, 20 years old?

What happened Saturday is unacceptable. It should never happen again.
Toward that end, it isn't "politicizing" the tragedy to point out that no politician has done more to glorify political violence than Donald Trump.
That's just the truth. We shouldn't be afraid to say it.
“The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.”
May the Fourth be with you.

Disappointed in my alma mater’s decision to embrace a fossil fuel executive as its commencement speaker.
Many of the graduates forced to listen to his empty words will spend their careers undoing the harm wrought by climate change. All of the graduates will feel its effects.
Get ready for #PittGrad24 by learning about this year's speakers!

EPA has announced a suite of final rules to reduce pollution from fossil fuel-fired power plants - taking action to protect public health, tackle climate change, and cut pollution in our air, water, and in our neighborhoods.

Reduce emissions of carbon pollution; ensure cleaner water for communities; reduce health risks from mercury and other air toxics; clean up coal ash contamination.” EPA logo in bottom center.
I joined @AmeriCorpsVISTA after graduating college and it was one of the best decisions I could have made when launching my career in public service.
Any young person interested in combatting the climate crisis should consider starting their journey with @ClimateCorpsUS.
Our @ClimateCorpsUS will put 20,000 young Americans to work fighting the impacts of climate change today so they can join the clean energy and climate-resilience workforce of tomorrow.
Head to ClimateCorps.gov to join the next generation of clean energy workers.

Biden has had a very consequential first term on health care:
More affordable ACA premiums, record enrollment, and the lowest uninsured rate ever.
Government negotiation of drug prices in Medicare for the first time, a cap on drug costs, and a $35 limit on insulin copays.

Did you mention it's just for unaccompanied children?
You know, 8 year old kids fleeing violence or certain death, who arrive at our border alone, shivering and frightened, traumatized from the journey, not able to speak the language.
We aren't monsters. We should help them.

FULL STATEMENT: And it's official. The White House announces a "temporary pause" on pending approvals of American LNG export terminals.
The statement is below, and links here to the comuniqué itself: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room… and a White House factsheet: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…
Until a few days ago, terms like “45V” and the “three pillars” of hydrogen meant nothing to me. As always, thank you to the amazing folks at @CanaryMediaInc and all their contributors for educating a newly minted energy policy wonk!
@USTreasury is poised to unveil rules to guide the clean hydrogen industry (canarymedia.com/articles/hyd…). A thread on the stakes—and why this debate should NOT be seen as "greens vs industry" but rather "right vs wrong way" to scale a "clean" hydrogen industry that's actually clean.

.@HHS_ASPR & I met with our NDMS teams providing support on Maui. Our Disaster Mortuary Operations Response Team & Victim Identification Center Team are part of @POTUS’ long-term, whole-of-government effort to support residents impacted by the devastating wildfires.

.@GovernorShapiro's decision to schedule xylazine is dangerous and will hurt Pennsylvanians. This decision will send sick people to jail where they are 40x more likely to overdose and die upon release. Responding to public health crises with law enforcement tools will NEVER work.
Gov. Shapiro has announced that his administration plans to schedule xylazine as a schedule III drug.
The move allows the state to require tighter record keeping, and gives law enforcement the ability to charge people in illegal possession of the drug. trib.al/3lBoYhM
.@GovernorShapiro also opposes overdose prevention sites which have saved hundreds of lives in NYC. He joins a growing list of governors who turn their back on evidence-based solutions in service of political expediency. nitter.cf/b_scanlandTV/status/16…
@gill_mcgoldrick asked Shapiro whether he supports safe injection sites. “I do not support safe injection sites,” Shapiro said as he received applause from members of the audience @ErieNewsNow @WENYTV

One of our goals as an administration is to work to solve issues to root cause. The co-response pilot has already started to yield measurable results and helped identify system gaps that we need to address.
I look forward to expanding this pilot to other police zones citywide.
In February, social workers from @PghOCHS and PBP began a pilot project to jointly respond to calls.
These social workers can assist people in a mental health crisis, those requiring service navigation, or additional social service support.
