A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE TRIED TO STOP ME FROM RUNNING. 

Establishment messengers have told me: “start small, wait your turn,
you’re too bold, run for city council or board of education.”
 
But I’m. Not. Listening.

I'm running because the future of our planet, and my son’s
future, can only be addressed by massive federal action. Last year,
the IPCC climate change report said we need to achieve net-zero
emissions by 2030 at the latest. But the entrenched democrat I’m
running against, Frank Pallone, responded to it by coming out with a
measure that aims to achieve net-zero by 2050. It will allow new
investments in fossil fuels for the next thirty years. It would also
be too late. According to Australian climate scientists, Frank
Pallone's plan won't save human civilization. At that moment, I
realized the person meant to protect my interests and my family, was
actually one of the greatest threats to the health of my family and
our planet. It was at that moment that I realized I would have to give
up everything to get him out of office.

Frank Pallone, like other incumbent Democrats, constantly play this
game of “Climate Minimalism.” They pretend like they are for
serious change, while they actually oppose any serious change. Frank
Pallone loves to tout his environmental record. But, the money
corrupts. Frank has taken the dirty money of the fossil fuel industry.
And he does the bare minimum for appearances, a show, a masquerade,
that he is protecting the environment, but he is truly doing the
bidding of the corporations that fund him.

We need to end the pollution economy. I thought my representative, a
Democrat, would understand the same. We’re here now, we have a
climate crisis now, because of his failures over thirty years. But it
turns out when he was asked to reject fossil fuel money, he said no. I
specifically asked Frank if he would stop taking fossil fuel money for
his re-election campaign at his town hall. He said NO, he would still
take the big oil money. But the money influences him. That’s why he
said no to the Green New Deal and no to saving the planet. That’s
why he pretends to care (because he knows our shoreline district needs
to save our tourism industry), but in reality he is one of the people
to blame for the situation we’re in. In this cycle alone, he’s
taken over $100,000 from the fossil fuel industry, and nearly $1
million over the course of his career. We cannot trust someone who
takes money from the biggest polluters, to protect our family and our
planet from the endless greed of the fossil fuel companies. He has
proven that he won’t do it.

The incumbent Democrat that I’m challenging, will single handedly
have the power to block the Green New Deal from ever occurring,
because he chairs the Energy and Commerce Committee and can make sure
no Green New Deal ever makes it out of his committee for a vote. In
fact, he shut down AOC’s climate change subcommittee earlier this
year. In fact, he’s proposed a half measure of his own, that is a
handout to the fossil fuel companies and will invest in natural gas
for 30 years.

Of course, running for congress does include hard work. Everytime
when I leave to go meet voters, now my two-year old son argues with me
and says, “No Dada, stay.” It tears my heart out when I tell him
“Daddy has to get to work.” These are reminders that I’m doing
this for him. Doing this so he can have a future. And I cannot. Stop.
This. Fight. It will all be worth it, with your support.

That’s why I’ve publicly pledged to never, ever, take a dime of
fossil fuel money (or other corporate money). Because we need to
transition our energy from pollution, to one of green energy
solutions. We need to elect better Democrats. Democrats that are
willing to fight for clean air, pure water, our homes, our families.
Democrats that are willing to stand up to the powerful corporations
that govern our lives.

WE RAISED $12,000 LAST QUARTER, WE HAVE OVER TWENTY VOLUNTEERS, AND
WE ONLY NEED 25,000 VOTES TO WIN THE PRIMARIES IN A SAFE BLUE
DISTRICT! WE CAN ELECT BETTER DEMOCRATS. WE CAN HAVE A GREEN NEW DEAL.
AND WE CAN HAVE MEDICARE FOR ALL!
