This is it, Friend.
After years of fighting and months of negotiations, this is our best opportunity to pass historic investments to address the climate crisis.
A recent surprise deal — announced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Joe Manchin — would invest in climate action, clean energy, and environmental justice in order to accelerate clean energy innovation.
Though not perfect, this legislation would put us on the path to reduce carbon emissions by roughly 40% by 2030 — by far the biggest step Congress has ever taken to curb climate change.
This is huge, hopeful news, but we still need your help to bring this deal over the finish line. We've been close to passing legislation before, and we know that corporate polluters and their cronies in Congress

The best thing you can do right now is to claim your LCV membership — all it takes is a gift of $5 or more. Until midnight, a group of donors has agreed to TRIPLE your impact by matching all gifts.

Right now, we aren't on track to meet our goal — unless that changes, we may need to scale back our efforts.
Here's where things stand:
