Climate change is real, our planet is on fire, and we must act. Now. That’s why I’m joining Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Senator Ed Markey, and countless young activists across the country as an original co-sponsor of the Green New Deal. And I want to tell you why.

The Green New Deal is not just a bold plan for addressing climate change and beginning to right the ship. It is also is an urgent call to invest in growing a modern, green economy that is equitable and just for all.

Income and wealth inequality, already at historic levels before the pandemic, have exploded in the past year. We must get millions back to work, we must rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, and we must invest in creating a green economy that works for everyone. And as other countries are investing at record rates, the United States continues to fall behind.

For far too long, our heads have been stuck in the sand, and our politics at loggerheads. But we are experiencing the devastating impacts of climate change NOW , and we can’t wait any longer.

Here’s what the Green New Deal would do:

The Green New Deal calls for the long-neglected public investment we need at the federal level. It would set us on a path to rebuild our roads, bridges, and railways, weatherize homes and buildings, remove toxic lead from pipes and paint, guarantee clean water to all, modernize our electrical grids, invest in the clean energy jobs of the future, and so much more.

The Green New Deal also importantly and rightly focuses on people and environmental justice. People are the ones who will suffer and have already suffered the worst effects of climate change, especially disadvantaged communities and people of color. And it will help level the playing field while creating millions of good-paying union jobs to build up this new economy.

We just reintroduced the Green New Deal in Congress — I need your support to build pressure and urge Congress to pass it. Will you join me as a citizen co-sponsor? Add your name today. [[link removed]]

Despite the fear-mongering from Fox News and congressional Republicans, we need a Green New Deal. And strong support from you and activists across the country will be critical to carrying it over the finish line.

Thanks for joining me.
