John -

We are beginning to enter the exciting Fall season; our kids are going
back to school, football is creeping up, and Congress will be returning to
D.C.

I want to reflect with you on some of the things we can take away from the
summer season. Obviously, the biggest story is for the first time in
America's history, a former President has been charged with both state and
federal crimes. This is not something we take lightly or something we
celebrate. The justice system in America is acting as it was designed.

But Trump is not the only news of the summer, folks. The climate crisis is
unfolding in front of our very eyes, and billions of people globally are
dealing with the ramifications of the corporate abuse dealt to our planet.
In parts of Iran, the heat index reached over 150 degrees Fahrenheit (yes,
I did have the staff fact-check that number because I did not believe it
at first.) These temperatures are dangerous, and as we send our children
back to school, we must consider what kind of planet we are leaving for
future generations. I struggle with that question because it sometimes
feels like we are just in an endless cycle. No matter the arguments, the
proof, and the historic weather-related tragedies that unfold, Republicans
in Congress do not seem to be swayed. 

I need to emphasize one thing: Republicans in Congress are unfazed, but
that does not mean Republican voters feel the same way, specifically those
Republicans in TX, FL, AZ, and across the South. These folks are living
through life-changing and life-disrupting weather conditions. So when
their Republican representatives tell them climate change is a hoax, they
live a different reality. That reality presents an opportunity for us to
reach these folks and get them on our side. That is one of the goals for
No Dem Left Behind this cycle. We plan on refocusing on the climate crisis
and targeting Republican strongholds that have been impacted.

I make sure to tell our staff that if we remember that the truth is on our
side, our job becomes a little easier. All we have to do is convey what is
happening and our strategy to fix it. The Biden administration is making
historic moves to combat climate change, invest in green energy, and
create green jobs. The Democrats in the House and Senate are united behind
the progress we are making. We have the people and the plans to make an
impact, all we need is the voters along with us.
