Labor Day is not just about honoring the movement that has lifted so many
families out of poverty, it is an important moment to recommit ourselves
to advancing the values of the labor movement: ensuring safe, good jobs
with benefits and representation for everyone.

These values are personal for me. As someone who started my career as a
union organizer, I believe deeply in the irreplaceable role the labor
movement plays to secure our middle class. These values are part of what
brought me to the environmental movement.

The need to completely transition to a clean economy and adapt our
infrastructure provides a unique moment to create new economic
opportunity, address inequality, and create safer communities at a massive
scale.

[ Support ]And we're all-in for a Green New Deal because these are exactly the
opportunities and values this ambitious proposal represents.

The Green New Deal includes a plan to:

 1. Create public jobs with livable wages to those who need one
 2. Ensure workforce transitions to frontline communities and workers most
impacted by our climate crisis
 3. Accelerate the nation towards a goal of 100% clean, renewable energy
by 2030
 4. Transition our buildings, transportation, and infrastructure to
prepare us for what’s to come

CLCV Member, it’s time to think bigger about what’s possible. Our
future depends on it.

[ Support ]Join with us today -- on Labor Day -- in urging Congress to pass a
Green New Deal.

The Green New Deal is an opportunity for us to set a new vision for our
country- one that is more inclusive, secure, and sustainable than where we
are currently. This vision of a better future is catching on across the
country.

With workers, young people, and elected leaders in every state fighting
for justice and progress through our economic transition. Strengthening
the partnership between the climate and labor movement is critical if we
are to succeed.

Today is a new opportunity. We need to call on our California
congressional leadership right now to take action. We need their
unwavering commitment to the boldest possible action on workers’ rights
and the climate crisis. These issues are deeply connected, and anything
less than the bold vision of a Green New Deal won’t be enough.

[ Support ]Add your name now and urge Congress to pass a Green New Deal.

Together, we can protect ourselves from the impacts of future climate
catastrophe and meet our communities’ needs for safe jobs, economic
security, healthcare, full employment, and worker empowerment for
everyone.

With gratitude to our labor partners,

Mary Creasman
Chief Executive Officer
