If the Trump administration wanted to lower energy costs, they would reject new & pending methane gas export applications. #StopLNG sierraclub.org/articles/2025/…

Since the story on the @DeptofDefense's website on Jackie Robinson has been deleted, here are the details of his service in the United States military. In 1942, Robinson was drafted and reported to Fort Riley, Kansas. By early 1943, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant before joining the 761st tank battalion, also known as the Black Panthers. A year later, after Robinson boarded an Army bus, the driver asked him to retreat to the back. Robinson refused -- more than a decade before Rosa Parks. Robinson was court martialed and later acquitted. He spent the rest of his military service at Camp Breckinridge, where he coached Army athletics teams. Robinson was honorably discharged in November 1944.

At the height of organized tea party engagement, @clairecmc had the courage to travel throughout Missouri, hosting town halls in both urban and rural areas. This is pathetic.

#moleg is strangling working class Missourians. By the end of the week, a bill will be on Gov. Kehoe's desk that increases electric rates by $1K+ annually, and now they want to take away pay raises for minimum wage workers. Story via @KurtEricksonPD stltoday.com/news/local/gov…

It baffles me that the “energy dominance” crowd wants to kill a project that would lower electricity costs for dozens of small rural Missouri towns, for which many local officials have publicly shared it would be an economic benefit to their towns and attractive to businesses.

He argued that we have established processes to do business for a reason. Picking and choosing winners and losers based on feelings after regulatory and legal processes plays out is actually bad for business in Missouri.

Even @BillEigel acknowledged on the Missouri Senate floor at one point that he didn’t like the project, but the company followed the law and jumped through every regulatory and legal challenge to move forward with the project.

BREAKING: Campaign Legal Center, Union of Concerned Scientists, Organization of Chinese Americans, Japanese American Citizens League, and Sierra Club have filed a lawsuit challenging Elon Musk and DOGE's unlawful and devastating funding and staffing cuts to the U.S. National Park Service and Forest Service. “American families are already feeling the effects of Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s careless and illegal cuts to our federal workforce," said Sierra Club Executive Director @BenJealous. "Firefighters and forest management staff have been dismissed as families remain on edge from the threats wildfires pose. Families wanting to enjoy our national parks, forests and monuments are being welcomed with closed signs, long lines, and unmaintained trails–before the parks’ busiest season has yet to begin."

The “downward pressure on rates” nonsense peddled by Ameren and Evergy to #moleg is being realized in states ahead of Missouri on the development of power-hungry data centers. Ameren & Evergy know it’s nonsense because monopoly utilities have their own club and talk about it.

And now leading data center growth states, including Virginia, Georgia, and Texas, are considering legislation to shift costs more toward data centers due to residential/commercial ratepayer utility bill shock concerns. Story via @jefftomich #moleg eenews.net/articles/state…

Senate Bill 4 will absolutely increase residential utility bills for millions of Missourians. The chart below shows Duke Carolinas original 2023 energy plan and its updated 2024 plan side by side, showing what 2GW of new load demand will do to rates. #moleg
