John,
With the House passing the Build Back Better Act and the Senate set to
return to the Capitol this week, we have a real opportunity right now to
combat climate change while creating hundreds of thousands of good-paying
jobs.
But with Joe Manchin as Chair of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources
Committee, essential climate investments are being needlessly cut back.
[ [link removed] ]So, after months of watching climate provisions get watered down by
Manchin, we must continue amping up our pressure to make sure he is no
longer in charge of Senate climate policy.

The climate crisis is already going to be the biggest policy challenge of
our lifetimes, so excluding substantial action in this legislation would
be completely unacceptable.
That’s why we cannot afford to have Joe Manchin as Chair of the Energy and
Natural Resources Committee.
While climate change sometimes doesn't get the attention it deserves, it’s
by far the biggest threat to our country and our world. Even though the
scientific process continues to confirm this, we are not doing enough to
prevent the worst impacts of this crisis.
We know climate change is real, it’s here, and there’s little time for us
to prevent it from turning into a devastating disaster –- one that will
wreak havoc on some of the most vulnerable communities across the planet.
As the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources,
Joe Manchin is responsible for regulating the fossil fuel industry, but we
cannot trust him to act in the best interest of the climate when he owns
millions of dollars in coal stocks.
[ [link removed] ]Tell Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer: Replace Senator Joe Manchin
as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources now.

Thank you for taking action. Seriously addressing the climate crisis is
going to require all of us.
