Friend — we just received troubling news:

A Republican group with close ties to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is launching a new front to derail the most meaningful climate legislation in a generation — the Build Back Better Act — opening a $10 million ad campaign targeting three vulnerable senators.

This is a disaster, Friend. Here's the issue: President Biden and his team and pro-climate leadership in the House and Senate have been working for months to pull together a transformational bill to tackle the climate crisis and get the US on track to cut emissions in half by 2030. We've been fighting all along and at every step in the process to make sure we succeed: we have put up field operations in states around the country. We have knocked on 300,000 doors. We have flooded Senate offices with calls and letters. We have hit the airwaves with ads.

After months of the most intense, widespread climate campaigning in our history, and as negotiations drag on, our finance team is reporting that we're almost out of money — just at the moment the other side is ramping up.

What we know is that if this new ad campaign goes unanswered, we could lose this vote. The margins are that tight. Simply put: We need your help to keep our campaign up, before it's too late.

We are launching an emergency membership drive as a final front against these ruthless, inaccurate attacks from polluter-backed republican groups. So, if you're in a position to pitch in, please, renew your membership today. We need climate action now. Even $5 counts »

We know our strategy can make a difference: We're driving highly visible grassroots support for climate action in key districts, but we can't let up now with the end in sight.

Everywhere you look people are demanding Climate Action Now, and Congress is hearing them. We can't let vulnerable senators be swayed by republican extremist's ads in the final hour. We have to keep fighting back.

We are so close to the finish line here — we just need to keep up the support and action during the final negotiations. We can win if we reach our $50,000 October fundraising goal. This goal helps keep organizers knocking on doors and ads airing across channels till the last detail is finalized and the last vote is cast. .

Renew your expired membership today and triple your impact. This campaign is too important to miss »

Thank you for everything you do — we've come so far, but it's only going to get across the finish line with your help.
