John,
I have an important story I’d like to share with you.
Back in the 2000s, they wanted to build a four-lane interstate through Braddock, a Black and Brown community that was already suffering historically high asthma rates.
I called this “environmentally racist policy.” I am proud to be among the only elected officials in Western PA to oppose it.
Even today, it’s a constant struggle. Because communities like the one that I live in have different environmental standards + outcomes.
These experiences have helped shape one of my core values and a core value of this campaign: Environmental justice for every American is critical.
It's never lost on me that our future generations are going to feel the effects of what our national + state governments do today. On so many issues, from gun violence prevention, to education, to health care, to climate, our kids are quite literally depending on us to get this right.
John, know that if you send me to the U.S. Senate, my role as Senator would be informed by my 13 years as a mayor of a community that has faced many environmental injustice challenges and as a father who wants his children and his children’s (future) children to grow up in a better world than the one we have right now.
We love going to PA’s beautiful parks as a family ❤️
My pledge to you is that I will fight for you, your family, and our planet each and every day in the Senate. But I need your support to get there. In honor of Earth Day, can you please make your very first donation of $5 today?
On the very first day of our campaign for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania, I signed the "No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge" to send a clear message to the fossil fuel industry.
I have NEVER accepted a campaign donation from the fossil fuel industry — and I NEVER will.
I’m not running to represent Big Oil. I'm running to represent you. That’s why our campaign is funded at the grassroots level by people giving small amounts online through emails like this one.
I hope you’re able to get outside and enjoy some sunshine, fresh air, and celebrate our great planet today, John.
Thanks for your continued support,
John
John Fetterman
Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania
