Friend, Happy Earth Day! Thanks to President Biden's leadership, we now have the largest investments in climate action and clean energy ever! People across America can already see the president’s clean energy plan hard at work. We’re so grateful to have leadership, both in the White House and here in the Silver State to curb the impact of the climate crisis. We want to thank the Biden Administration for the executive order that was signed by our president yesterday to achieve real, measurable progress that communities can count on. In the Legislature, there are also measures to clean up pollution from mining, combat the impacts of extreme heat for our workers, and protect low-income and marginalized communities from the harmful impacts of environmental damage. Make your voice heard on these bills. To submit an opinion on a bill, log in with your Nevada Legislature account, go to the Bill Number Page, find the bill you are interested in submitting an opinion on AB131, AB313, and SB427, click on the bill's name to go to the bill's Overview tab, scroll to the bottom of that tab, find and then click the "Submit Opinion or View Opinion Stats" link. Today, tomorrow, and every day, we will continue celebrating Avi Kwa Ame’s designation as Nevada’s newest national monument! For the Yuman tribes, the Avi Kwa Ame area is tied to their creation, cosmology, and well-being. The Yuman Tribes believe the mountain is the spiritual birthplace of the tribes, the place where ancient ancestors emerged into this world. Protecting Avi Kwa Ame is part of President Biden’s efforts to conserve lands and waters around the country in the fight against the climate crisis. Friend, have you seen last week’s designation celebration with Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland? You can stay tuned to all of the great work happening federally and here at home by signing up for our feed at this link. You can stay up to date on what we are doing in the communities that we love and what our partners are working on every day, but especially on days like today when we celebrate our planet. Happy Earth Day!
