John, we did it!

The Senate has finally confirmed every member of our Federal Reserve
slate: Lael Brainard, Philip Jefferson, and Lisa Cook — making this one of
the most diverse and well-qualified Board of Governors in the Fed’s
history.

We are proud of the work that our movement has done to secure these
confirmations — from demanding that President Biden nominate climate
champions, to urging members of the Senate to confirm them, to organizing
in the streets for the Federal Reserve to take climate action.

But our work isn’t finished yet. As the newly confirmed Fed nominees begin
their new terms, we need to make sure we hold them accountable for climate
action.

start their terms off by taking strong action on climate?

Since January, we’ve been fighting to get Phillip Jefferson, Lisa Cook,
and Lael Brainard nominated and confirmed. We advocated for these
candidates because we believe in their ability to steer the Fed in a new
direction that will prioritize people over profits and combat the climate
crisis.

From rising inflation to climate disruption, the new members of the
Federal Reserve Board of Governors have their work cut out for them. But
the way they respond to these rising challenges must be through immediate,
necessary action on climate — not handouts to the oil and gas industry.

When the climate crisis is being fueled by financial flows to the oil and
gas industry, we need the Federal Reserve to begin the work of addressing
the most pressing crisis of our time. It’s time that the Federal Reserve
take responsibility for its role in escalating the climate crisis and cut
off the flow of funds from big banks to fossil fuels.

Federal Reserve to take strong action on climate?

Thank you for all your work for a Fossil Free Federal
Reserve, John.
This is a victory for all of us.
