Americans are in dire need of relief.
There is no question we need a dramatic response to the
devastating economic impacts of this unprecedented crisis. Congress is
working through the weekend to come up with a bi-partisan solution to
help provide immediate relief to families, distressed communities,
businesses, and American workers.
They need to act quickly - without causing any further damage to
Americans' health and safety. We can't alleviate one
crisis by contributing to another. And now, more than ever, we need to
be listening to strong science.
Taxpayers, many of whom are now struggling financially, have the right
to expect responsible behavior in exchange for bailouts.
Take action right away, and tell Congress: Don't fund private
businesses only to let them create more damages for the public in the
form of climate change.

Because as the government acts quickly to make investments in our
future, we need to ensure we're building a better one.
Here's what's at risk:
* The airline industry is reportedly requesting $50 billion, which
is three times what they received after September 11th. We
absolutely must require that in order to access those funds,
airlines take action to protect us and cut greenhouse gas
emissions from domestic flights by 25% by 2035 and 50% by 2050.
* And the Trump administration has stated they're looking to
get $3 billion to boost America's oil reserves. Before the
dirty energy industry gets any funding, the clean energy
industry - solar, wind, and more - must get equal
funding.
* And we need to ensure that this relief package in absolutely no
way rolls back any existing environmental safeguards.
And a vote could come any second - so before it's too
late, make sure your Members of Congress know where you stand.
