As the Trump tax law is set to expire, Republicans plan to blow up the deficit with trillions more in tax cuts for the superrich. We must do more than just undo the damage of the Trump law. We must de-corrupt the tax code so the wealthiest finally pay their fair share.

Following revelations that a former Pioneer CEO—and possibly others—coordinated with OPEC to drive up gas prices, we’re demanding answers from 18 oil companies about any efforts to collude with oil cartels and raise prices on U.S. consumers.

Despite facing a life-threatening situation in the ER, Lauren was unable to receive the medical treatment she needed because of Texas’s draconian abortion bans. Stories like these are becoming all too common. Nobody should have to flee their home to seek medical care.

When it became clear that one of Lauren’s twins was not viable, she had to flee Texas to receive lifesaving abortion care and protect her wanted pregnancy. Despite silence from her Texas senators and erasure from the Texas Supreme Court, she is bravely sharing her story.

Today marks 2 years since the Trump-packed SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade — unleashing a torrent of attacks on women’s health care & reproductive rights in red states across the country. The Dobbs decision put lives in danger. We need to codify Roe as a matter of federal law NOW.

How can we effectively reduce emissions, create jobs, and finally make Big Oil pay for its pollution? Two words: carbon pricing.

Climate-flation. We’ve been hearing a lot about it in the @SenateBudget Committee. Republicans apparently can’t connect climate and budget. Soon enough, the world will connect it for them.

Get Ready. Everything’s About to Get a Hell of a Lot More Expensive.

Intensifying hurricanes, floods, and heat waves are wreaking havoc across the country—and on all of our bank accounts.

Heat-related health risks are on the rise because of climate change, and it’s costing families, communities, and the economy. As we’re facing yet another record-breaking heat wave, older adults are especially at risk of health complications.

Everyone You Know Will Eventually Be Highly Vulnerable to Extreme Heat

As we get older, our bodies become less adept at responding to high temperatures. On a warming planet with an aging population, that’s a problem.

Republicans have now blocked protections for both IVF and contraception. They are attacking reproductive freedom at every turn, and as our hearing showcased, that’s an attack on women’s economic freedom, too.

The financial industry is one of the most consistently profitable economic sectors, but it doesn't contribute a fair share to the costs of vital public investments. One significant reason: The 2017 Trump tax law that slashed the corporate tax rate. ⤵️
