Friend,
As we mourn the loss of Ruth Bader Ginsburg — an icon for social and environmental justice and an American hero — Republicans in the Senate are disregarding her dying wishes by rushing to fill her seat before Election Day.
The level of disrespect for Justice Ginsburg is heart-wrenching. She doesn't deserve this. We must vote them out.
We need your help to do it.
Cory Gardner, Thom Tillis, Steve Daines, and Joni Ernst are all anti-environment senators up for re-election. Each is on the record stating that SCOTUS confirmations shouldn't happen in a presidential election year, but now they suddenly support moving forward with a vote on Trump's nominee — with only 37 days till the election.
Each of their races is polling within a few points right now.
We need you to dig in deep today, and help us get these hypocrites out. Whether they win or lose will depend on what we do now.

These same senators who have vowed to support Trump's new nominee are the ones who blocked President Obama from filling a seat
nine months before the election — claiming it was unfair, and up to the American people to decide.
But they might get away with it, friend. Just this week Thom Tillis has flip flopped on offshore drilling — now calling for a moratorium — in a last ditch attempt to win back support in North Carolina. He actively denies climate science and takes hundreds of thousands from corporate polluters. Don't let his lies cost North Carolinians the chance to elect a climate champion, Cal Cunningham.
Your tireless support is funding digital advertising, vote-by-mail efforts to reach uncontacted voters, and efforts to ramp-up voter turnout in every swing state, but right now we don't have the resources to focus deeply on each priority race.
Friend — we cannot afford to lose even one of these races.

A funding shortage in any of these races could cost us an environmental majority in the Senate — and you and I both know that the environment doesn't have four more years to wait, and neither do the people.
Trump's America has allowed 200,000+ people to die from COVID-19, violent police brutality to harass communities, and unethical detention centers to destroy families. As he denies climate change we're watching it happen live — with multiple hurricanes that ravaged our coasts and wildfires that destroyed the west.
And with just 37 days left until the biggest election of our lifetimes —
the race could not be tighter. Recent Washington Post-ABC polls have Trump ahead of Biden in Florida and Arizona — two states that could easily give Trump the electoral votes he needs for reelection.
Pro-environment voters like
you and I will make the difference in this election. If we can continue to fund our outreach strategies — we will have the numbers — and if we remove Trump and his enablers, we're in a real position to advance federal policies that put people most impacted by pollution and climate change at the center of solutions — especially communities of color, Indigenous communities, and low-wealth communities.
Don't miss this opportunity to make a difference in securing a livable planet for future generations. Everything is on the line.
