Leadership means consistency. An ambitious EU NDC is vital for climate action and would send not only a signal of hope, but one of consistency. People and the economic sector need clarity in a polarised and unpredictable world. (1/4)

We took a trip last month to the Gulf of California in Mexico to see the location of a proposed LNG facility & path of the associated 900+ foot tankers. 𝐌𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐜𝐨 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜’𝐬 𝐒𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐨 𝐋𝐍𝐆: 𝐖𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭, 𝐖𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞. #opposition" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nrdc.org/bio/joel-reyno…

📉 The emissions gap to 1.5°C is still huge @WRIclimate finds the 22 #NDCs submitted so far could shave off 1.4 Gt CO2e by 2035. But we need far deeper cuts to avoid the worst climate impacts. What countries do next will shape our future. Read our latest article on the state of NDCs: bit.ly/43n7rsb

The Trump Administration and its nominees are gaslighting us - pretending like USAID is under a "good faith 90 day review" when they've already killed the agency and fired 94% of the staff. It's offensive and we shouldn't let them get away with it.

The reality is that in the 43 days he’s been in office, Trump has illegally stolen funds promised to the American people, killed crucial government programs, and is weakening our healthcare system.

Today, I joined my Democratic colleagues on the National Security/Department of State Appropriations Subcommittee in sending a letter to Secretary Rubio about foreign aid cuts. Our message is clear: These cuts threaten our national security and undermine our global influence.

God. Not only did the Trump Admin give USAID workers only 15 minutes to clear their desks, they refused to allow one to take a picture of his dead wife’s name on USAID’s memorial wall. She was a foreign service officer. How fucking cruel can they be?

Marjorie Taylor Greene denied me from speaking at today’s DOGE Subcommittee hearing on foreign aid, even though waivers to do so have always been respected by both sides. I was the first Dem on the DOGE Caucus, and I lead a Subcommittee on @HouseForeign. Why is MTG so afraid?

2025 will be a defining year for climate action. Will countries deliver? 🌍 A critical test of our collective effort to tackle the climate crisis is under way as countries begin to submit their national climate commitments under the Paris Agreement. These plans, require every five years, outline 2035 targets for slashing emissions and actions for protecting citizens from worsening climate impacts, such as wildfires, flooding and extreme heat. @davidwaskow, Director, @WRIClimate, explores ➡️ t.co/VY5B8IVrEC

NEW: Donald Trump's effort to gut foreign aid programs and sideline thousands of USAID workers have now both been halted — at least temporarily — by judges who say the rush to implement them may have violated laws. w/ @joshgerstein politico.com/news/2025/02/1…
