Dear NRDC Action Fund Activist,
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a giant of the Supreme Court. She was an
inspiration to legal scholars and women.
And she stands in the greatest possible contrast to Donald Trump. Every
day, Trump takes another swipe at the pillars of our democracy.
It is no surprise to anyone that I am not a fan of Donald Trump. He
pretends that racism and police brutality don't exist. He believes that
scientists have ulterior motives, and he says that climate change is a
hoax. His words as president matter, but his recklessness has made this a
dangerous time in this nation.
And now, Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell want to force through Justice
Ginsburg's replacement, even as this election is already underway. This is
disgraceful — the next Supreme Court justice should be chosen by the next
president. So I'm standing with the NRDC Action Fund to do everything we
can to defeat Donald Trump this November.
This
election is too critical to sit out. [ [link removed] ]Please, join me and help the NRDC
Action Fund reach their $65,000 goal by September 30 — so they can do
everything they can in these final critical weeks before Election Day to
stop Trump. Even $5 makes a difference.
We have experienced four years of unprecedented damage and heartache
across our country — from the pandemic to the worsening of racial
inequality to climate-related disasters.
COVID-19 remains an emergency that has claimed more than 200,000 lives —
the magnitude of which was completely avoidable. Trump knew how deadly the
virus was back in February — but instead of taking it seriously, listening
to scientists, and protecting the lives of the people he claims to
represent, Trump downplayed the risks and used the crisis as cover to push
his own dangerous agenda.
And even as we continue to grapple with this pandemic, Trump is offering
up our environment to the fossil fuel industry on a silver platter while
trying to steal the election right from under our noses.
He recently opened Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to devastating
oil and gas drilling. He stripped away the policy that required evaluating
environmental and health impacts of federal projects. All the while,
devastating wildfires are ravaging the West, including my state of
California, and extreme weather is tearing through the Midwest and the
Southeast.
On top of all this, he is also trying to make it harder to vote safely,
both in person and by mail.
The collective weight of all this damage — from COVID-19 to the climate
crisis to the inability to vote — is disproportionally borne by Black,
Indigenous, and communities of color. This is not a coincidence. It's also
not acceptable, and we won't stand for such injustices any longer.
The NRDC Action Fund is giving it their all to defeat Trump and elect Joe
Biden and other climate champions who will put our health and the planet's
health first. For our future's sake, November 3 needs to be the beginning
of the end of the Trump administration.
[ [link removed] ]Will you join me and support the NRDC Action Fund with a gift of $5 or
more to put our environment, common sense, and common decency first on
Election Day? Every dollar will help us reach our all-important goal of
$65,000 by September 30.

This election is now a stark choice between a democracy and
authoritarianism. Climate change is on the ballot. Our health is on the
ballot. And now, the future of the Supreme Court is on the ballot. Every
single one of us must make a plan and vote as early as possible.
I want to be able to sleep at night and not dread what I'll see or hear
the next day — and I'm sure you do too. We must care about the facts, the
planet, and each other. And we must make Trump a one-term president.
Thank you for anything you're able to do to help.
Sincerely,
Barbra Streisand
