Here are the key races we're focused on right now.

Dear NRDC Action Fund Activist,

Control of the U.S. Senate is up for grabs in this year's elections, and it's also crucial to maintain the pro-environment House majority.

We need to send a new class of environmental champions to Washington and protect current environmental champions in Congress facing tough battles ahead.

The NRDC Action Fund has endorsed Joe Biden for president, and we'll fight with everything we've got to make sure he beats Donald Trump on Election Day. But that's not enough: we also need to elect a Congress that's ready to undo the damage that Trump's destructive policies have done to our environment, our health, and our communities — and we need your help.

Here's some of the races, for the Senate and the House of Representatives, that we'll be focusing on between now and Election Day. Please review this list, and then consider donating to our campaign and help us mobilize the pro-environment voters who will decide the outcome of their elections.

Every dollar you give before midnight on June 30th will be DOUBLED, up to $150,000 — going twice as far to support ads, mobilize grassroots activists, and get voters to the polls in these and other key races.

 

Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) Senate
Sen. Peters is leading efforts to increase Michigan's renewable technology, but faces a strong anti-environment challenger in a vital swing state.

Senator Doug Jones (D-AL) Senate
Sen. Jones is a key pro-environment voice who strongly supports Alabama's clean energy economy

Cory Booker (D-NJ) Senate
Sen. Booker is a leading environmental justice champion in the Senate and has advocated aggressively for more clean energy infrastructure.

Theresa Greenfield (D-IA) Senate
Ms. Greenfield is running to unseat a climate change-denying opponent who votes with President Trump over 90% of the time.

Ben Ray Lujan (D-NM) Senate
Rep. Lujan is running for New Mexico's open Senate seat and is a strong clean energy advocate and protector of public lands and natural treasures.

Cal Cunningham (D-NC) Senate
Mr. Cunningham, running to replace Trump ally Thom Tillis, has championed clean air and protecting drinking water and water ways from industrial hog farm pollution.

Lauren Underwood (D-IL) House of Representatives
Rep. Underwood served as a Senior Advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, helping prevent and prepare for public health emergencies, and has cited clean water and climate change as top concerns in her district.

We're planning to pull out all the stops to help these environmental champions, and others, win in November — from supporting hard hitting ads, to organizing grassroots activists on the ground, and to launching our biggest Get Out The Vote campaign yet.

But big campaigns like this take big resources, so it's crucial that we build a war chest that can sustain us from now until Election Day.

Not just that — your support today will also be supporting our vital work every day to block President Trump and his allies' backwards, anti-environment agenda — on and off Capitol Hill.

So please don't wait: donate to the NRDC Action Fund today, and DOUBLE your impact on these key races and the fight to stop President Trump's anti-environment agenda, once and for all.

Remember, all gifts made before midnight on June 30th will be matched, up to $150,000.

Thanks for standing with us.

Sincerely,
Kevin
Kevin S. Curtis
