John,
On Monday, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released its most detailed report yet on the history and future of global climate change.
The report confirms what climate activists, Cori, and her progressive colleagues in Congress have been repeating: Time is running out to address the climate crisis.
According to 270 researchers from 67 countries, climate change is already impacting much of the world — and is exceedingly worse than expected. We know firsthand that the climate crisis is already hurting communities like St. Louis.
It's more clear than ever that the U.S. must be a world leader in the fight to address climate change. That's why Cori is a co-sponsor of the Green New Deal and proudly introduced the Green New Deal for Cities alongside Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
John, Cori won't stop leading for the bold and ambitious legislation we need to address the climate crisis, but she needs your support. Will you add your name to our petition calling on Congress to pass a Green New Deal and act immediately to preserve the future of our planet?
This is a global crisis with the worst effects already being felt in predominantly Black and brown countries and communities. Cori knows how urgent it is we deliver meaningful climate action to St. Louis and communities like it.
In St. Louis, there are clear signs of how folks, especially Black and brown people, are hurting because of a lack of local funding and government support for climate action and environmental protection. Our children are making more and more trips to the emergency room for asthma attacks and extreme temperatures are driving up electric bills.
This is a crisis of great magnitude, and we can't wait any longer for empty legislation. We need bold solutions, and Cori is dedicated to achieving them.
Our whole future is at stake, John. Will you sign our petition calling for Congress to pass a Green New Deal now? Our lives depend on it.
Together,
Team Cori
