John —

There have already been thousands of wildfires this year
in California alone.

Our state is in the midst of a severe drought, and we’re
on track to continue outpacing extreme heat records for the rest
of summer with little to no rain, which only increases the risk
of destructive wildfires in early autumn.

In past years, peak wildfire season typically spans from
May through October. But, with the climate crisis escalating at
an alarming rate, that season is starting earlier and ending
later each year – with some experts even suggesting that
California is at the point of experiencing a year-round fire
season.

We don’t have time to waste as hundreds of thousands of
acres become engulfed in flames, families are forced to evacuate
their homes, and structures up and down the state are destroyed –
our communities need immediate relief from devastation and
resources to mitigate future damages.

The climate crisis isn’t waiting, which means we can’t
either.

House Democrats recently passed the Wildfire Response and
Drought Resiliency Act to address this worsening crisis, and I
was proud to contribute a portion of its proposals.

This legislation will deliver major investments in
drought resiliency, wildfire mitigation and recovery efforts, and
water conservation infrastructure. As fires and droughts increase
in frequency and intensity, we must also be sure to center the
already-disadvantaged communities who often bear the brunt of
climate devastation.

We need to stand together in support of a sweeping
investment in environmental justice. Add your name today if you
agree. ( [link removed] )

We are seeing the real impacts of climate change, right
now. We can’t afford more false starts and failure to follow
through on climate action.

The climate crisis is the most pressing existential issue
of our generation, and it’s time we start treating it like the
emergency it is.

Thank you for taking action.
