Oil & Gas #Lobbyists and #Republicans in Congress want to gut the $14,000 in rebates people could get for things like electric-powered induction stoves or heat pumps. 3/7 #ClimateEmergency #ClimateAction
With just 18 days left until the election, it is more important than ever to combat attacks on climate policies and the false narratives about gas prices that Republicans and oil and gas CEOs are trying to spread. 4/7 #BigOilLies #RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica #ClimateCrisis
As American families struggle at the pump, Big Oil CEOs are raking in record profits – more than $210 billion in the first six months of 2022. 5/7 #BigOil #RepublicansArePriceGougers

Today, corporate consolidation is allowing companies to keep raking in historic profits, while continuing to raise prices for working families. 1/13 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #CorporateConsolidation #DemocratsDeliver #HarrisWalz2024 Image
In the two decades before President Biden & VP Harris came to office, three-quarters of American industries grew more concentrated. As the President often says, capitalism without competition isn't capitalism, it's exploitation. 2/13 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #Competition #DemsAct Image
And the American people are tired of being played for suckers.The Biden/Harris Administration has taken historic steps to boost competition across our economy, in fields from finance and farming to technology and transportation. 3/13

American farmers are the backbone of our country. They feed America, and help feed the world. But over the years, trickle-down economics has hit rural America hard. 1/13 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #farmers #agriculture #HarrisWalz2024 Image
#Farming costs have gone up & incomes have gone down.Big Agriculture moved in,telling too many small farms that the surest path to success was to get big or get out. As a result, we lost over 400,000 farms in the last 40 years, & rural communities have paid a steep price. 2/13 Image
Too many young people have had to leave their hometowns to find good-paying work & a shot at their dreams.
#Democrats believe that no one should have to leave the community where they grew up just to find opportunity. 3/13 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #Agriculture #YoungPeople Image

At the start of the Biden-Harris Administration, in the midst of the worst economic crisis in 100 years, experts feared a stagnating recovery and even worried about a new recession. 1/11 #DemPartyPlatform #HarrisWalz2024 Image
But #Democrats chose to put workers first, and instead of recession, America has seen remarkable strength and resilience. Our economy grew by 3.1 percent last year – the fastest rate of any major economy in the world. 2/11 #DemPartyPlatform2024 #HarrisWalz2024 #EconomyMatters Image
#Democrats added nearly 16 million jobs – not only recovering all the positions lost during Trump's botched handling of COVID, but also adding 6.3 million more than existed before the pandemic – surpassing pre-pandemic projections for the labor market. 3/11 #HarrisWalz2024 Image

There are many of @HC_Richardson “Letters from An American” that should be highlighted. This one is of vital importance because it summarizes where we find ourselves today as we #resist those who mean to strip our rights, protections & freedom. open.substack.com/pub/heathercox…

#Thread Below is a statement from Sarah Jaynes, a key advisor to the Winning Jobs Narrative project and the Executive Director of the Rural Democracy Initiative: 1/11 #RuralDemocracyInitiative Image
Voters in small cities and rural communities are working people, through and through. They believe in their communities and in this country, even when the country fails to prioritize them and rural economies struggle. 2/11 #RuralVoters #DemPriorities #WorkingAmerica Image
Some right wing leaders have tried to exploit the economic anxiety that many rural Americans justifiably feel.But the Biden Administration & current Congressional majority have taken action with the greatest investments in rural America in the last 50 years. 3/11 #DemPriorities Image
