Dear John,
March 8, 2022 will be a day to remember for climate justice.
On Tuesday, March 8, New Yorkers from across the state will flood the streets of Albany to demand $15 billion for climate, jobs, and justice. The UN Climate Change IPCC report has made it clear that we have a ‘brief and rapidly closing window’ to avoid irreversible damage to our planet and its inhabitants. The senseless war in Ukraine also demonstrates our need to move toward clean energy independence.
Join us on March 8th as we tell our leaders that we need to see $15 billion in the New York State budget, because climate justice—and our communities—can't wait any longer. Our communities are demanding cleaner, sustainable neighborhoods that provide green, union jobs. This is the capstone action in the NY Renews budget campaign, and it could be the one that pushes us over the top. But to get the $15 billion our state needs, we need you.
Are you ready to join us in Albany? We'll be coordinating buses, vans, and carpools from major areas across the state. You can select your transportation needs in our RSVP form. We will be requiring vaccination and masks for all transportation and at the event.
We'll see you at the Capitol!
In solidarity, Maritza Silva-Farrell Executive Director
