John,
Today we launched our most important fundraising month of the year! December is when we raise more than half our yearly budget. That means how much we raise in the next few weeks will determine how ambitious we can be in all of 2020.
To help us start strong in the new year, we’ve set a goal to get 500 new monthly donors by the end of the day today. We’ve already gotten 147 so far. Can you be one of the 353 more we need today?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Chip in $5 a month
Chip in $10 a month
Chip in $25 a month
Chip in $50 a month
Chip in another amount
Or, make a one-time donation here.
Last week, the UN released another terrifying climate report. Scientists say that we need to cut down global emissions by at least 55% in the next 10 years to avoid the most catastrophic effects of climate change. But right now, we’re not even close to being on track.
A co-author of the report said, “There is no way we are going to make it if we don’t step up action as of next year with ambitious plans.”1
Luckily, we have a plan to get to net-zero emissions by 2030, and it’s in the Green New Deal. We just need politicians to step up and put it into action.
So in 2020, we’re gonna go all-in to build a mass movement of support for the Green New Deal and elect a President and Congress who are ready to champion it. We’re already building electoral teams in 7 key states to canvass for GND champions and reach 2 million youth voters; we’re preparing to train 100,000 new young leaders in hubs across the country; and we’re building strike networks that will get millions of people into the streets demanding a Green New Deal from now to election day 2020 and beyond.
Help us make 2020 the year that will launch the decade of the Green New Deal. It all starts now with your support: chip in monthly so we can plan big all year long.
Or if you can’t go monthly yet, chip in once today.
Thanks for helping power our movement.
