[ [link removed] ]SIGN ON!

Yesterday, we got big news from the Biden-Harris Transition.

John Kerry, who co-chaired a climate task force with AOC, was appointed as
climate czar! And Janet Yellen, who dropped the hammer on Wells Fargo as
Fed Chair, will be Treasury Secretary!

This shows that the hard work of progressives has paid off, and there's
more to come: Congresswoman Deb Haaland would be an inspiring,
game-changing, progressive, incredible, hulking choice to head up the
Department of the Interior.

[ [link removed] ]Will you join me on this sign-on message to President-Elect Joe Biden
and the Biden/Harris Transition team: "We support Congresswoman Deb
Haaland for Secretary of the Interior."

The Department of the Interior plays a crucial role in our public lands,
our national parks, and the federal government's relationships with Tribal
Nations. Haaland has far better expertise than any corporate lobbyist for
Interior Secretary.

She is Vice Chair of the House Natural Resources Committee and Chair of
the Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests, and Public Lands -- where she
chaired some of the first hearings on climate change in the House in over
a decade. She was also Tribal Administrator of the Pueblo of San Felipe
before being one of the first Native American women elected to Congress.

Elizabeth Warren says Deb has a "top-notch command of policy." She passed
numerous bills on Tribal rights and natural resources through Congress and
into law. Yesterday, Republican colleagues from [ [link removed] ]Oklahoma and [ [link removed] ]Alaska
praised her work.

[ [link removed] ]That's why I'm asking you to join me in sending a message to the
Biden-Harris Transition that Deb is the Interior Secretary we need.

The New York Times reports, "The Progressive Change Institute, a group
aligned with Senator Elizabeth Warren, sent an extensive list on Friday to
Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s transition team that included about 400 recommended
names for positions in his administration."

Deb Haaland was high on that list. She would make an excellent Cabinet
member in the Biden / Harris Administration -- and the first Native
American ever to serve in the Cabinet.

Secretary of the Interior."

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
