It's really important for Democratic politicians to understand that the Manchin-Barrasso Energy Permit Reform Act is political suicide for Democrats on both the left and the right. It's one of the most aggressively anti-populist bills I've seen in ages. It's written by fossil-fuel-industry allies on behalf of the fossil fuel industry, with a Project 2025 laundry list.

Common Dreams · Critics Warn Manchin-Barrasso Permitting Bill 'Is Taken Straight From Project 2025' | Common Dreams"You thought Project 2025 was just a threat after the election? It's actually happening *right now,*" said one climate campaigner.

⛔ Am 18. März jährt sich der Abschluss des #EUTürkeiDeal zum 7. Mal, Europas menschenverachtende Antwort auf den sog. langen Sommer der #Migration 2015.

🚧 Jetzt läuft der #DirtyDeal endlich aus. Aber #FortressEurope intensiviert die Externalisierungspolitik incl. 'Kooperation' mit sog. Transitstaaten.

🔴 Darum am 18.03. auf die Straße:

📢 No more #EUTurkeyDeal:
📢 #HumanRights are not for sale!

📅 #SaveTheDate!

#NoBorders #FightTheFortress
#SafeAndLegalRoutes & #FreedomOfMovement for all!

Thank you Rep. Ro Khanna for pointing out that #permitting is not the issue stopping #transmission.

"The roadblock is: Eversource, the utility, does not want to invest in an upgrade of transmission for solar and wind. They don’t want solar and wind to be more a part of their portfolio."

Can we now please stop pretending the #DirtyDeal is anything but a giveaway to #fossilfuels. prospect.org/politics/ro-khann

@climatebrad FYI it looks like Manchin is trying to modify the #DirtyDeal to get Republican votes instead of trying to get the rest of the Democratic caucus on board:

Be really helpful if he did something to narrow the scope of his permitting changes to set a national standard on transmission, and leave out the fossil fuels parts. But he went in completely the opposite direction.

“Hi, my name is ____, & I’m from ____. As your constituent I’m urging you to vote NO on any rule that would advance Senator Manchin’s dirty permitting deal. I'm deeply concerned about any legislation that would fast-track fossil fuel projects and undermine our ability to give input on new energy projects.”
