The House is back home. We need your help more than ever to pass the Build Back Better Act? ? ? Friend ? I want to give you an update on where things stand with the Build Back Better Act ? the most significant piece of legislation for climate action in the last decade.

On Friday, the House headed back to their home districts for a recess without voting on either the bipartisan infrastructure deal or the Build Back Better Act. Negotiations advanced, but not far enough for a deal. Speaker Pelosi has set the new deadline of October 31 to hammer out a deal and approve both of these bills. That means that we have just 26 days to organize and be louder than we've ever been to make sure that Congress passes the Build Back Better Act with significant investments in climate action, jobs and justice that will put the country on track to cut climate pollution in half by 2030.

Friend ? we've never needed you more. We need thousands of activists in every state writing into their members of Congress to make sure they know that climate action is critical, and that their constituents want the big, bold investments that we need to fight the climate crisis. Without that, we could risk losing everything.

Will you take five minutes to write to Congress today and tell them to prioritize climate action and pass the Build Back Better Act? Your voice is critical at this moment. [link removed]

Thank you,
Sara Chieffo ? ? ? ? ? ? Friend,

I'm Jennessa, and I've been a part of LCV campaigns for the past six years. I've knocked on countless doors in my home state of New Hampshire, helped the community make hundreds of phone calls to our representatives, and organized town halls and rallies with one goal in mind: fighting for a safer, healthier, cleaner future, not just for my community, but communities across America.

I believe there needs to be a place for everyone in the environmental movement ? because this fight is intersectional and it affects everything and everyone. When enough of us bring our voices together and demand what's right from our leaders, we have real power and the ability to make real change.

Right now, we have the biggest opportunity ever to pass meaningful action on climate change in Congress. A bill is moving that would enable us to reduce carbon emissions by 50% by 2030, put our nation on a path to 100% clean energy by 2035, and deliver at least 40% of investments to communities of color and low-income communities that are impacted the most by fossil fuel pollution.

That's why I'm asking LCV supporters like you to come together and demand that your representative vote for ambitious climate action that doesn't leave any community behind.

Will you sign the petition and tell your Congressional representative to pass a reconciliation package that invests in clean energy, jobs, and justice now? [link removed] PULL POSTALCODE%%&adv_address1=%%LIST PULL ADDRESS CITY%%

I know adding your voice will make a difference ? trust me, I've seen that our representatives really do listen to us. And it's NEVER been more important to speak out for climate action than now, while Congress is returning from recess and will vote soon on the Build Back Better Act.

So much of what we've worked and organized for has led to this point ? poised to pass the most ambitious action for climate ever, with the potential to create millions of good-paying union jobs and a new and more just clean energy economy.

But even though our voices are loud, polluters are spending millions to try to keep the status quo. We can't risk being drowned out by anti-environment misinformation and losing progress on climate action before it's too late.

This next week is so, so important for all of us and future generations ? please, add your voice and help us get even louder.

Please, join me and sign the petition ? tell your representative to pass a reconciliation package with real climate action at the scale science demands NOW. [link removed] PULL POSTALCODE%%&adv_address1=%%LIST PULL ADDRESS CITY%%

It scares me to think about what our future might look like if we let runaway climate change continue ? and our communities ? especially communities of color that are on the frontlines ? facing the worst of climate-fueled floods, fires, and other disasters.

That's why I've organized and taken action with my community ? and why I'm hoping you'll join me in contacting your representative too.

Thank you for reading this message and taking action [link removed] PULL POSTALCODE%%&adv_address1=%%LIST PULL ADDRESS CITY%% ? we'll keep following up about how you can help during this critical push.

Thanks,
