It’s been a heavy week for some of us, John. Our thoughts remain with everyone impacted by the wildfires in Southern California. But amidst the devastation, I want to take a moment to share some uplifting news — a small win in Virginia this week that we can all feel good about.

Thanks to grassroots supporters like you, Kannan Srinivasan — our first JanePAC-endorsed climate champion of the year — won his critical special election in Virginia’s 32nd Senate District!

This was no ordinary race. It was our first early test of the political environment after the 2024 elections, setting the tone for the fights ahead. With a razor-thin majority in Virginia’s Senate, Kannan’s win keeps control out of Republican hands — and makes sure Trump and his allies can’t bulldoze through the state with their anti-climate agenda.

But let’s not kid ourselves. This special election was our first battleground of 2025, but it won’t be the last. Trump takes office in a matter of weeks, and he’s promised to team up with Big Oil and Republican-led legislatures across the country to erase climate progress. That’s why we need to continue to build on this momentum and create a firewall of climate leaders at every level of government to protect the climate policies we’ve fought so hard for — and to push for bold new ones.

John, this special election victory is just the beginning. It’s proof of what we can accomplish together in the months ahead. Can I count on you to chip in a few dollars to help us keep this momentum going? [[link removed]]

There is no “off-year” in the climate fight. With over 100,000 open seats on the ballot this year, we can’t afford to sit on the sidelines.

The fossil fuel industry and its Republican enablers will pour unlimited resources into elections to defeat candidates like Kannan — candidates who dare to prioritize people and the planet over corporate profits.

That’s why grassroots power is the key to winning. When we unite, there’s nothing we can’t achieve — and 2025 will prove it.

Every dollar you give helps us recruit, endorse, and strategically support candidates who will hold the line and push for bold climate action. Can I count on you to chip in today to power our fight? [[link removed]]
