"We're here to call for an end to the [climate bill] stalemate in a united way across our Democratic caucus." -@RepJayapal

"We Democrats believe that this generation faces two huge challenges: the fight for democracy and the fight for the planet." -@GerryConnolly

.@RepDelBene:

"Failure is not an option. We need a final bill now that significantly lowers costs, cuts greenhouse gas emissions, transitions to a green economy, secures our energy independence, and ensures the U.S. leads in the global fight against climate change.”

“A clean energy future is no longer an ambitious goal, it’s a necessity." -@DorisMatsui

"We're here to demonstrate today is this is across the board in the Democratic caucus, from our friends in @USProgressives, to our friends in @NewDemCoalition."

@RepAnnieKuster

"My home state of North Carolina is already a leader in clean energy. We're #2 in solar. But we still need investments to reach our full potential," says @RepDeborahRoss on the need for the Senate to pass the $555B+ climate bill.

.@RepBarragan says that addressing the climate crisis will also address supply chain issues and the infant formula shortage

.@RepDerekKilmer notes how four coastal tribes in #WA06 have had to move to higher ground due to rising sea levels and more severe storms.

"The evidence is all smacking us in the face," says @RepAndyLevin on the climate crisis and the need for the Senate to get the job done and pass a climate bill. #ClimateCantWait

"The United States Senate has not done anything on *the* most important, existential imperative of our time. And that is unacceptable." -@RepHuffman

.@RepPaulTonko: "We're calling for @POTUS and @SenSchumer and the 50 members of the Senate Democratic Caucus to come together around an ambitious reconciliation package."
