To paraphrase something I said on the House floor this week, “If you love pollution, if you hate capitalism, if you hate competitive American businesses, vote for the GOP.”
One thing before I get into the weeds on this topic. If you’re against pollution and for a thriving economy, will you pitch in $15 towards my campaign + a more sustainable future?
Allow me to explain the context here.
The GOP – those self-proclaimed capitalism-lovin’ and socialism-hatin’ tough guys – continue to use our tax dollars to protect the declining fossil fuel industry from clean-energy competitors.
They’re actively intervening in the free market so the fossil fuel industry can continue polluting, drilling, and spilling for generations to come.
That’s not free-market capitalism – it’s crony capitalism.
The kind that’s designed to benefit a very select group of people (especially if those people are big-time Republican donors), everyone else be damned.
We don’t need self-interested hypocrites in charge while we face the greatest challenge in human history. We need leaders who understand that a livable planet is actually good for business!
So please, folks, I’m on a mission to find common-sense solutions to the climate crisis. I’m sure not going to find them on the other side of the aisle, so can I count on YOU to pitch in to my campaign before the FEC filing deadline on Sunday?
Thank you,
Sean Casten
