“The movement for climate justice is already strong, we just need to keep building it.”
That’s a direct quote from Congressman Jamaal Bowman of New York. He believes that we have a moral obligation to take bold action to combat climate change. And we couldn’t agree more.
When Food & Water Action endorses a candidate, it means they're committed to fighting for our shared vision of safe food, clean water and a livable climate. During a recent interview with Congressman Bowman, we asked about his goal to transition to 100% renewable energy by 2030. He said:
“While a rapid, safe transition to 100% renewable energy by 2030 may feel ambitious, we can make it a reality by increasing the number of climate advocates in office and making sustainability a personal priority for all community members. It is paramount that we maximize the presence of climate-focused representatives. We can do this by organizing and mobilizing voters from historically underrepresented communities who tend to be impacted most intimately by climate change.”
Together, we’re mobilizing people across the country to write letters to voters, make calls and get out to vote this November 8. Thank you, John, for being such a critical part of this now-or-never moment to elect climate champions.
Food & Water Action and its affiliated organization, Food & Water Watch, are advocacy groups with a common mission to protect our food, water and climate.
