@AmProg’s report shows the broader stakes: - Nearly 2.5M Americans, including >565,744 kids, live < 3 miles of facilities granted 2-year exemptions from toxic pollution limits - Pennsylvania is a Top-6 state for the most kids living near a “free pass to pollute” facility. Link⬇️

Reinvesting nearly $1B in oil, gas, and LNG rather than wind energy is a loss for taxpayers. In 2025, U.S. LNG exports already cost Americans $12B in added energy expenses—or $124 more per household—and almost $1B a year in health-related pollution costs. americanprogress.org/article/tradin…

TotalEnergies' cancelled offshore wind projects mean Americans will lose out on $2.8 billion in energy bill savings by 2035—or about $19 for every megawatt hour of electricity they use at home. 💡❌ americanprogress.org/article/tradin…

The Trump Administration will use $1B in taxpayer money to cancel two offshore wind projects 🌀for New Jersey and North Carolina. That’s 4 GW of clean energy, 37,000 jobs, and enough power for 1.3 million homes—all gone. americanprogress.org/article/tradin…

President Trump promised to lower energy costs.⚡️Instead, 242 electric and natural gas utilities are increasing or proposing to increase costs for customers in 49 states and D.C. 📉❌ The truth: Americans are being forced to pay more, not less. americanprogress.org/article/electr…

The Santa Ynez pipeline was shut down after a 2015 spill released more than 100,000 gallons of crude oil along the coast.⚠️ Now, in a reckless, profit-seeking move enabled by the Trump admin, Sable could be putting California’s communities at risk, and padding their bottom line.

If Trump really wanted to deliver price relief he’d end his war on Iran, not give handouts to oil companies so they can reap the rewards of high energy prices. Instead, all his administration is delivering to Californians is an increased risk of another environmental disaster.🌊

After President Trump moved to restart offshore drilling off California’s coast, Sable’s CEO said “doing the math" would prove its benefits. We did. Turns out, it's just another handout to polluters cashing in on high prices, not a way to lower them [🧵]: wfmd.com/2026/03/18/oil…

What’s more worthwhile than: 👷 37,000 new jobs in NC and NY, 💰 $3 BILLION in annual wages, and 🏘️ $44 BILLION in investment and benefits for American communities? According to the Trump administration, it's natural gas exports. 🛢️🚢➡️ sewind.org/news/total-ene…

Instead of proposing solutions to the skyrocketing energy prices Americans face as a result of President Trump’s war with Iran, the Trump administration has put forward ideas that benefit the oil and gas industry. Here's how Trump could have taken action: americanprogress.org/article/how-th…

🚨 Instead of backing pollution-free, low-cost, wind energy for North Carolinians and New Jerseyans, President Trump is requiring investment of nearly $1 BILLION toward costly, volatile, and polluting oil and gas, including exports for foreign markets: nytimes.com/2026/03/23/cli…
