Friend — Have you heard about JD Vance yet? He’s the freshman Senator from Ohio that Donald Trump has chosen to be his running mate.

Now, there’s a lot we can say about JD. Like how he supports a full and total ban on abortion with no exceptions. Or how he voted against IVF access in the Senate. Or how he promotes Donald Trump’s Big Lie about the 2020 election.

But to really know who JD Vance is, we just need to look at his stance on tackling climate change.

Just a few years ago, JD was one of the vast majority of Americans who believe climate change is real, urgent, and requires green energy solutions. Look:

Tweet from Ed Markey:'Here's J.D. Vance in 2020 when he said 'we, of course, have a climate problem in our society, that 'the biggest improvement in emissions is solar energy', & talked about a 'clean energy future'. A scam is going from solar promoter to climate denier. A scam funded by fossil fuels.'

Now, here’s JD just four years later, after he made his full embrace of Trump, the MAGA far-right, and their fossil fuel buddies:

Tweet from @andpicon: 'J.D. Vance headlined the 3rd night of the RNC on Wednesday touting a populist, conservative message on energy policy that stirred Milwaukee’s GOP crowd into a frenzy. He mocked the “Green New Scam.” The crowd erupted into chants of 'drill, baby, drill.''

Friend: Let me be perfectly clear. We don’t need another climate denier like JD Vance near the White House — someone who will do and say anything if he thinks it will get him closer to the top.

My campaign has been working since day one to build a grassroots movement that will defend our democracy, defeat power-hungry far-right MAGA extremists like JD Vance, and deliver urgent action on climate and clean energy.

We’ve already passed the largest investment in green energy in our country’s history under President Biden. But it’s going to take the sustained efforts of all of us to continue to build on that progress. So please:

Make a contribution of $5 or whatever you can afford today and help power my campaign. We’re fighting to beat JD Vance and deliver the green, livable future our nation and planet deserves.

Real climate champions never turn their back on the movement we’ve built. I’ll keep fighting for more Green New Deal priorities until the day they’re made the law of the land.

In solidarity,

Ed Markey
