Friend --
We’ve seen what it looks like when we continue to ignore the climate crisis.
Millions of Texans have been facing that crisis head-on for more than a week -- melting snow in bathtubs for drinking water after days without electricity or heat, abandoned by state lawmakers and an infrastructure that was never meant to endure extreme winter weather.
That’s why Democrats’ bold and visionary plan to save the planet now and for future generations is more important than ever.
We’re running out of time to stop the climate crisis -- and we need to take action. If you agree, add your name to support our bold, climate Agenda and fight the climate crisis right now.
Last year, I stood with Senator Ed Markey, now-Interior Secretary nominee Deb Haaland, amazing activists from the Sunrise Movement, and over 200 groups and 80 legislators to launch an agenda to fight climate change and injustice. The THRIVE Agenda is focused on:
- Fighting climate change
- Creating millions of union jobs
- Investing in Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities
- Fighting environmental injustice
- And reinvesting in public institutions
What’s happening in Texas is more proof we can’t wait for our climate to change. It has changed -- and it will only get worse unless we act.
Science knows. Science warned us for years. What we’re seeing are the consequences of inaction from people like Donald Trump and his GOP allies. Democrats aren’t waiting for it to “cool down” -- we’re taking action now.
I’m in charge now and the THRIVE Agenda is an immediate focus for the Senate. If you support that work, add your name right now to join the fight against the climate crisis.
Sincerely,
Chuck Schumer
