John, this is a big f**ing deal:

The New Yorker published a profile piece on Sunrise, featuring our origin story and work to make the climate crisis a top issue in American politics by fighting for a Green New Deal to stop it.

Sunrise was born out of an urgent need for our elected officials to tackle the climate crisis (impacting our communities right now) with the seriousness it deserves — no half-measures here or compromises there. We know that the values that guide the Sunrise Movement will strike a chord with many readers of The New Yorker, and we're so excited to bring them into the fold.

All eyes are on Sunrise, John — and we're hoping to build on this moment. Will you chip in $10 to help strengthen our movement for the future we deserve?

Our goal to stop climate change and create millions of good-paying jobs in the process grows more likely when people — including readers of The New Yorker — recognize that, like Sunrise's Principle 8 states, we can "abolish or reimagine institutions that degrade our communities and our climate." (We're looking at you, Big Oil — and all of your government enablers too.)

We turned heads when we organized to elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest congresswoman ever elected to Congress. Then we kept showing up to demand a Green New Deal — from occupying Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office marching over 600 miles across the Gulf South and California to win a robust Civilian Climate Corps (and that's just scratching the surface). 

So we aren't settling for small changes. We're building an army of young people to make climate change an urgent priority across America, end the corrupting influence of fossil fuel executives on our politics, and elect leaders who stand up for the health and wellbeing of all people.

Taking on the climate crisis is no easy task, but we know how important this work is. By contributing $10 today, you are helping us plan and fight for the real change we need.

In solidarity,

All of us at Sunrise
