[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress



Alexandria just reintroduced the Green New Deal resolution in Congress! 

The Green New Deal (GND) envisions an economic mobilization much like what
former President Franklin D. Roosevelt implemented during the Great
Depression. It would create millions of good, union jobs all while
repairing our infrastructure, reducing pollution, and building the 100%
renewable energy future we need.

The GND also focuses on environmental justice — which means centering
Indigenous and frontline communities that are suffering the worst effects
of the climate crisis in the process.

[ [link removed] ]Today marks four years since Alexandria first introduced the Green New
Deal in Congress. In honor of this anniversary, can you donate $4, $14, or
$40 today to support this critical resolution to meet the climate crisis
with the urgency and scope it demands?

Four years ago, very few people knew what a “Green New Deal” meant. But
since then we’ve made a lot of progress: 

* Last year, Congress made the biggest federal investment ever – $369
billion — to fight climate change through the Inflation Reduction
Act. 
* We secured another $100 million for 60 different local Green New Deal
projects, stretching from Hawaii to Vermont. 
* Our allies in Congress introduced 12 companion bills that apply the
GND principles of jobs, justice, and climate to everything from
agriculture to electric vehicles. 
* Last Congress, more than half of Democrats sponsored a GND bill. 

Of course, there’s still a lot more to do. While the investment Congress
made last year to fight the climate crisis was meaningful, it still left a
lot of work undone — particularly when it comes to the intersection
between racial justice and climate policy. We need your help to continue
building our progress.

[ [link removed] ]When it was first introduced, the GND was called ‘unrealistic’. But,
thanks to your support, last year we won the largest climate investment in
history. Can you make a contribution right now to help Alexandria keep up
the fight for the Green New Deal in Congress and transformative policies
like it?
