CLIMATE, CLEAN ENERGY, AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE INVESTMENTS WILL GET A VOTE IN THE SENATE
After months of negotiating, we finally have a cost-saving deal in the Senate that makes overdue investments in clean energy, improves energy security and will build a more affordable, healthy, just, and equitable future. Voting is about to start, and we need 50 Senators to remain united to see this bill pass.

Friend, this news is HUGE. If this bill passes, it will be the biggest and boldest clean energy and environmental justice investment in American history.
Between increasingly devastating climate-fueled extreme weather events, high gas prices, and rising inflation, this agreement on transformational cost-saving climate legislation is urgently needed now.
We’re talking about hundreds of billions of dollars to ramp up clean energy production in the U.S. AND a plan to lower the costs of prescription drugs. This is going to save families money and help tackle inflation – and it’s all paid for by the ultra-wealthy and corporations.
This is the moment we’ve been working towards for over a YEAR. And if we don’t speak up now, if our Senators don’t hear from us, we could see this plan fall apart.
The planet cannot afford to lose a single vote. Urge the Senate to pass a budget reconciliation with significant investments in jobs, clean energy, and environment justice.
This is when we need leaders who campaigned on addressing the climate crisis to fight and take action that lowers costs for families, creates millions of good-paying jobs, tackles environmental injustices, and secures real energy independence.
Will you take action now? Submit your letter to the Senate before it’s too late. Help us reach 10,000 letters demanding historic climate investments that will make life better for people and the planet.
We are so close to a transformational package that will help reduce carbon emissions drastically – and it is your continued support and activism that has led us to this moment. Thank you.
Onward,
Sara Cheiffo
