Hi there,
Thank you for being an activist with Conservation Voters of PA! My name is Kai Mateo, and I’m the Federal Climate Campaign Manager. Right now, Congress is negotiating legislation that could become the most significant federal action to combat climate change EVER. This could mean millions of good-paying green jobs, a pathway to 100% clean energy for the whole country by 2035, and a commitment to invest billions of dollars in Black, Brown, and low-income communities that have been hardest hit by the climate crisis.
But the fossil fuel industry is fighting to block this historic investment, and we must make sure our members of Congress listen to us! We have to push back with our people power, our stories!
What has the climate crisis looked like in your neighborhood? What member of your family could benefit from a good, green job? Why do YOU personally care about environmental justice?
Your answers to these questions are a critical component of our campaign strategy. Members of Congress are going to be home in Pennsylvania in August. Imagine what an impact it would make if every time they opened their local newspapers, they saw a Letter to the Editor from one of us telling them exactly why we need bold action on climate change. That's why I’m inviting you to join me and New Jersey LCV Media Relations Manager Michelle Peal on Thursday, July 22, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. for our Letter to the Editor Training where you will learn how to write a letter to the editor and get it published.
Don’t worry if you have never written a letter like this before. Don’t worry if you’re uncertain about what your story would be. Don’t worry if you don’t know how to get something published. WE WILL BE THERE TO HELP YOU!
Looking forward to seeing you there,
Kai Mateo
