John — we have some very good news:The Build Back Better Act is heading to the Senate after passing the House.
The roughly $2 trillion Build Back Better Act allocates $550 billion in climate-related funding, the largest component of the bill. It includes historic investments in electric vehicle infrastructure, extended and new tax credits for clean energy, funding to help localities and tribes to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, a fee on methane emissions, and much, much more. There are too many great climate components of this bill for us to list them all in one email.
We’ll be honest with you: The bill is not perfect. We would’ve liked to see bolder progress and even more robust climate initiatives in the legislation to aid the fight to save our planet.
That said, what passed the House remains a major step forward. The largest step forward the U.S. has ever taken on climate, in fact.
And now the Build Back Better Act goes to the Senate, which will get its turn to amend the bill. Will you add your name to our petition calling on the Senate to pass this legislation with the vital climate provisions intact? [[link removed]]
ADD YOUR NAME [[link removed]]SEEC members of Congress fought hard to ensure that as many climate provisions as possible remained in the bill before going to the Senate. And these efforts were largely successful because of the support of grassroot advocates like you. But, our work is not over yet.
The final version of the bill sent to President Biden for his signature must contain these environmental protections. Climate change is the existential threat of our lifetime. Action is needed. Now is our moment.
Will you help us get the Build Back Better Act to President Biden’s desk by signing our petition now? We need to show our Senators that the pro-environment movement stands strongly behind this legislation. This is the final push, and every signature will take us one step closer to making this bill a reality. Will you sign right now? [[link removed]]
