How you can show up in the wake of this climate (and budget) disaster

Hi friend,

Last weekend, devastating flash flooding hit Texas, claiming over a hundred lives and wrecking entire communities. We’re filled with immense grief as this climate disaster continues to unfold, and our hearts go out to everyone affected.

But alongside our grief, we also feel angry and frustrated.

When climate disasters strike, ordinary people suffer the consequences, not millionaire politicians like Ted Cruz. He notoriously helped cut funding for the National Weather Service, a system designed to protect American families, then immediately fled to Greece to evade accountability.

That same bill rolls back key clean energy programs and promotes fossil fuel development, all while ripping healthcare away from millions of Americans, raising our electricity bills, and giving huge tax breaks to the wealthiest billionaires.

As we continue to mourn and navigate this tragedy, we must also call out the role politics plays in fueling climate disasters like the one in Texas Hill Country. And that means holding our lawmakers accountable for failing to preserve programs that rein in the dangerous pollution we know is linked to extreme weather events. Will you join us in sending them a message about their recent vote? ([link removed])

HOLD YOUR REPS ACCOUNTABLE ([link removed])

And though this moment is ripe for accountability, it’s also a time for care, compassion, and mutual support. Communities have shown up for one another time and time again when our government fails to help those who are most vulnerable. Now is no different.

If you’re looking for ways to show up for Texas communities and help with flood relief efforts directly on the ground, here are a few organizations and mutual aid efforts that you can donate to:

Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country,
Kerr County Flood Relief Fund ([link removed])

Central Texas Community Foundation, Wilco Cares Fund ([link removed])

Austin Disaster Relief Network, Central Texas Flood Fund ([link removed])
