Millions of Americans living across our target regions are experiencing record-breaking temperatures, posing a real threat to public health and safety.
Sadly, this unbearable heat shouldn’t come as a surprise. Environmental experts have warned for years that if our elected officials don’t start taking climate change seriously, extreme weather like these ongoing heat waves will only continue to become more common and more intense. Our states and regions are at the epicenter of this impact.
Still, instead of taking action to address the climate crisis, Republican lawmakers are stoking culture wars and targeting our fundamental freedoms.
