Hi friend — Last week marked the end of COP28, this year’s official United Nations conference on the climate crisis.

Ed went to the conference with a simple message: Right now, the American economy is drunk on fossil fuels — it’s time to close the oil-soaked tab and invest in a clean energy future.

Ahead of COP28, Ed joined Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, and over 30 other lawmakers to send a letter to President Biden calling on the White House to support urgent action on climate finance and fossil fuel phase-out.

Please, take just a few seconds to join progressives in Congress and sign on to our letter to President Biden. We’re looking to get as many signatures as we can so we can send a clear message that Democrats are unified in calling for more action on climate. [[link removed]]

If you’re not convinced to sign on just yet, here’s the text of the letter to President Biden and his administration:

“As the United States prepares to attend the upcoming 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28)... we encourage you to strengthen the U.S. position in the international fight against the climate crisis. The passage of the historic Inflation Reduction Act, which represents a quarter of all global clean energy investments since 2020, puts the United States in a position to be a global clean energy leader.”

“In order to remain on target for a livable future, we urge the Administration to support the move toward an extensive, expedient, and equitable phase-out of fossil fuel production and consumption. A full phase-out should be inclusive of coal, oil, and fossil gas, and led by the wealthiest and highest-emitting countries, including short-term phase-down goals and climate financing to assist developing countries in executing a clean energy transition.”

The climate movement needs you now more than ever. It needs all of us, doing what we can to secure a livable future for all.

In solidarity,
