The latest news from League of Conservation Voters? ? ? ? ? Dear Friend,

Despite immense challenges in the lead-up to November 3rd, LCV and our affiliated entities and state partners met the moment with our most ambitious electoral efforts ever [link removed].

Voters, especially voters of color and young voters, turned out in historic numbers across the country. Together, we voted for a better future that puts communities ? especially Black, Indigenous, and other communities of color, as well as low-wealth communities most impacted by intersectional environmental injustice ? at the center of solutions.

In a time of crisis, we united to elect leaders who will listen, and our message was clear: It's time to tackle the climate crisis by creating a cleaner, healthier, more just and equitable future for all. Without your support, none of the work we did to help elect these leaders would have been possible ? thank you.

Here are LCV's Top 5 Stories of November 2020:

THE TOP STORY
PRESIDENT-ELECT BIDEN APPOINTS JOHN KERRY TO HIS NATIONAL SECURITY TEAM AS SPECIAL ENVOY FOR CLIMATE
Months before Inauguration, the leaders that you helped elect have already demonstrated they?ve heard us: President-elect Biden has appointed former Secretary of State John Kerry to his national security team as Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, signaling that the climate crisis will be a top priority for the Biden-Harris administration.

In response to this historic announcement, LCV President Gene Karpinski released a statement that says, in part, "President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris campaigned and won on climate and environmental justice, and today?s announcements make clear once again that their administration will prioritize international climate action on day one."

? ? THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO RIGHT NOW

The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) is in danger. In the final weeks of Trump's presidency, his administration is reportedly rushing a last-minute lease sale for oil drilling in ANWR. This decision disregards the rights and way of life of the Gwich'in & Inupiat people, will permanently damage ANWR?s fragile ecosystem, and will worsen the climate crisis. LCV is making a major push to block Trump's final destructive actions in office.
