🧵The #DebtCeilingDeal is headed to a vote today. Here’s what Tribes and Native people need to know:
1. It's critical that we reflect on how the GOP has held the global economy hostage to benefit their fossil fuel allies. This alone signals how broken this system is.
2. We are seeing cuts to Native/Indian programs within DOI, HUD and to Indian Education. To be clear, this is a disservice to American Indian People and Tribes as many of our programs have been historically underfunded.
3. A win for Tribes and Indigenous communities: IRA provisions for our communities remain intact as well as the $20B for Tribes in ARPA

DeJoy tried to sneak the USPS sweetheart deal to Oshkosh Defense for dirty gas mail trucks using super flawed & lazy analysis

Not gonna happen on Biden's watch 🇺🇸

Biden officials push to hold up $11.3 billion USPS truck contract, citing climate damage
washingtonpost.com/climate-enviro…
USPS contract is for 165,000 vehicles, which is 1/3 of the US Gov't fleet

just imagine the market making power if all of those new trucks were EVs!
DeJoy and his USPS minions really screwed the pooch on this Oshkosh Defense deal...

.@POTUS’s decision to modernize #NEPA is an important step to reduce govt overreach and prioritize American jobs, reduce the cost of living for our poor and middle class and make America even greater! 1/3 whitehouse.gov/briefings-stat…
For too long, #NEPA has been a bureaucratic nightmare that prevented proper management of our natural and renewable resources. It delayed, prevented and ran up costs of desperately needed infrastructure projects. 2/3
