Russia's invasion of Ukraine shows that America must lead the world in a clean energy transition. Our dependence on fossil fuel empowers dictators like Vladimir Putin, foreign petrostates, and price-gouging oil companies.
But transitioning away from oil, gas, and coal is made much harder by politicians -- including too many Democrats -- who take tens of thousands of dollars in campaign donations from fossil fuel industries.
Our next Meet the Candidates guest doesn't take any corporate money -- let alone oil, gas, and coal money. Doyle Canning is a climate champion who has spent 20 years building movements for strong climate solutions, working families, racial justice, environmental restoration, and more -- and she’s running for Congress in the open, blue Oregon 4th. You don’t want to miss this!
Can't make the call but want to help put climate-champion in Congress? Chip in to Doyle Canning’s campaign for Congress here.
For the sake of our national security and our planet, we need leaders who will take immediate action to invest in clean energy and end our dependence on fossil fuel.
As a community organizer, attorney, and progressive leader, Doyle has stood up to Wall Street Banks, big polluters, billionaires, and the politicians they pay for.
Doyle Canning is a well-known leader and strategist in the national climate movement. She has shaped climate change strategies around the world -- from grassroots organizing in Oregon, to influencing agendas at the global climate talks, to supporting groundbreaking litigation and fiercely advocating for climate justice in Congress.
During this Congress alone, Doyle has advocated for critical climate investments in President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda, advised Greenpeace on strategies to end Congressional giveaways to the fossil fuel industry, and to hold the line for "No Climate, No Deal."
Now, Doyle Canning is running for Congress to fight for environmental and climate justice, health care, and expanding collective bargaining and workers rights.
This open seat in a blue district is a chance for progressives to strengthen the ranks of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and build more power in Congress -- so corporate petro-Democrats like Joe Manchin can't veto Democratic priorities.
And, chip in to Doyle Canning’s campaign for Congress here.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
