Dear John,
<First Name>,
Recently, Tom Perez, the Democratic National Committee chair released a
resolution to end demands for a climate debate. It’s clear we have him
nervous.
This Friday, your DNC representative will be voting along with Tom Perez
about the need for a climate debate. If there was ever a time to speak up
it’s right now. More than half of the presidential candidates have dropped
climate change plans in the last two weeks. When will Perez catch up with
the public demand for real answers?

vote for a climate debate.

Dear John,
This July was the hottest month in recorded history across the world. With
fires in Alaska and flooding from Brooklyn to Baltimore, there just isn’t
enough urgency around the climate crisis in this election. That’s a big
problem.
Our next president must have a clear and bold plan for climate action.
That’s why we need a robust climate debate, but the Democratic National
Committee (DNC) Chair, Tom Perez, has blocked it at every turn. Perez
believes that a climate debate isn’t a strong enough topic, but we have
the opportunity to prove him wrong
On August 23rd the DNC’s 400+ members will vote on this issue — and it’s
up to all of us to make the loudest noise so Tom Perez and business as
usual politicians won't be able to ignore us any longer.
[ [link removed] ]Take two minutes today to call on your local DNC delegate to vote for a
climate debate.
Thanks to hundreds of thousands of supporters like you calling on the DNC
and Tom Perez, dozens of DNC delegates submitted a resolution supporting a
climate debate for a vote at their Summer meeting next week. Now we have
to build on that winning momentum and make sure they vote “yes” to host a
climate debate.
We’re not alone in calling for a climate debate either. Twenty of the
Democratic presidential candidates are in favor. So why is the DNC’s
leadership resisting both the public demand and candidate support for a
climate debate?
DNC members are supposed to represent the voters of their states’
interests, so let’s make sure they know it’s in our interest to see a
DNC-sanctioned climate debate.
[ [link removed] ]Call your DNC delegate today and let them know you want a Climate
Debate.
The field of candidates will continue to narrow, but this is the phase
where we get to see them all wrestle with the issues we care about in a
public forum. All candidates will soon be answering critical questions we
have around how they will address the climate crisis and transition our
country off fossil fuels.
To ensure we choose the right candidate to tackle the climate crisis, we
need a Democratic Party that will give us the platform we need to get all
the facts. [ [link removed] ]Will you call your local DNC representative and make sure
they vote ‘yes’ for a climate debate?
Let’s make the next two weeks count,
Clarissa Brooks
P.S. Want to do more? [ [link removed] ]Tweet at your favorite candidate (heck you can
tweet at all of them!) and urge them to sign the Day One Pledge. We
believe any candidate who wants to be President should be prepared to make
climate action a priority before entering the office.
