Dear John,
One of the most frustrating things about fighting for real climate change action can be the folks who are supposed to be on your side, but aren’t. There are so many people who will say all the right words at a campaign event but then will turn around and push policies that will turn out the lights on the future.
People’s Action members aren’t havin’ it. When Antarctica is hitting 65°F (which it did last week!), the time for middle-of-the-road gradualism is over. It’s time for action.
Watch and share our new video from the ground in New Hampshire.
Right now, on the ground in New Hampshire, our members at Rights and Democracy New Hampshire are making sure no presidential candidate gets away with simple lip service on climate action. Their Keep It In the Ground campaign--run alongside New Hampshire Youth Movement and 350 Action New Hampshire--is challenging problematic candidates in person to break their addiction to fossil fuels and fossil fuel political cash.
Standing apart from the pack on climate action is Bernie Sanders, who earned the endorsement of our national network and Rights and Democracy New Hampshire. Bernie got an A+ on RAD’s Keep It In The Ground report card. He understands the urgency of the issue and will fight alongside us to break the influence of fossil fuel corporations.
Please take a moment to share this video on Facebook and Twitter. People need to know where these candidates stand.

P.S. We’re helping to lead the fight to get Sanders elected, and we need your help to get it done. Sanders is the best candidate on climate, health care, and fighting corporate control of our politics. We need him as our ally in the White House. Can you donate right now to help us win?
P.S.S:
