Hail stones are expected get up to 75% BIGGER in the next few decades. 🤯 Worsening hail storms are already being observed in places like the Midwest, where home insurance premiums have skyrocketed in recent years. CCI's @kellysanks.bsky.social explains why Big Oil should help foot the bill.

Big Oil wants legal immunity. Congress must not give in. “Americans deserve not to be lied to by big corporations,” said @govjayinslee.bsky.social. “We should have no kings in the White House and no kings saying they’re above the law.”
Big Oil companies are pushing Congress to give them legal immunity. Why? “The only reason you’d want immunity is if you’ve done something wrong,” explains CCI’s President Richard Wiles.
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear oil companies’ arguments that they shouldn’t have to stand trial in a climate accountability lawsuit. For years, the Supreme Court rejected Big Oil’s requests to review similar cases... so what’s changed? @emdashsanders.bsky.social explains.
We’re drowning in plastics, and Big Oil is to blame. CCI’s Richard Wiles sat down with @cnbc.com to explain how the plastics industry “sold” us the myth of plastic recycling to address growing calls for regulation — and ultimately, protect their social license to make even more plastic. 😭
Even if you think Big Oil is innocent, Big Oil knows they’re not. @darkush.bsky.social of @publiccitizen.bsky.social explains why the fossil fuel industry is determined to bury the evidence of their climate deception — and how communities are fighting back.
Plastic costs U.S. taxpayers as much as $1.1 trillion per year, according to a new report from Duke University. The Big Oil companies that are making a fortune from producing plastic are counting on us not noticing that we’re being robbed.
As climate change pushes summer heat into the school year, many schools are struggling to cope with overheated classrooms and inadequate cooling systems. Oil and gas executives turned up the heat in these classrooms — they need to pay their fair share to keep students safe.
Big Oil is “trying to get Congress to take away the ability of Americans to have access to juries,” explains former Washington Governor @govjayinslee.bsky.social. The public deserves the right to take corporations to court for breaking the law. No immunity for Big Oil!
The U.S. government will now provide more than $34 billion a year to the fossil fuel industry in subsidies — but Chris Wright, the country’s top energy official, is claiming that those subsidies… don’t exist. @emdashsanders.bsky.social unpacks why that might be.
Why are New Jersey residents paying for climate disasters that Big Oil knowingly fueled? "100-year floods happening every five to ten years...really cause havoc,” explains Essex County Commissioner Brendan Gill. “It shouldn’t be up to the average citizen to pay for what they did."

I’m leading a bill to ensure our service members and federal employees get the pay they have missed so far due to the shutdown. People need to pay their bills now. Simple as that. I encourage my colleagues to get behind it as we work to address the health care crisis and end this shutdown.
