DEVELOPING... In Michigan's 3rd Congressional District, environmental champion Hillary Scholten is up against Trump-endorsed MAGA extremist John Gibbs, an election denier who has said he'd "return" us to Trump's polluter-friendly policies.

It gets worse, Friend. John Gibbs once argued that men are "smarter" than women because they have a better "ability to think logically about broad and abstract ideas." John Gibbs has even said that women shouldn't work — or vote.

As things stand, FiveThirtyEight's election model puts this race within a few points, Friend.

WE NEED YOUR HELP. LCV Victory Fund is hard at work in Michigan and other key places to turn out voters in November's midterm election. But funds are running short, and we need the support of environmentalists like you to help elect climate champions and defeat MAGA extremists on Election Day.

Because these next few weeks are so critical, right now a group of donors is triple matching every contribution to our work. Please — pitch in today. Help us get out the vote in key districts and states. Your support is crucial to holding the pro-environment majority in Congress and keeping extremists out. Even $5 is enough to make a difference >>

In the next three weeks, LCV Victory Fund is going all out to elect environmental champions like Hillary Scholten. We plan to make sure that the environmental movement shows up in every close House race where a climate leader is up against a pro-polluter MAGA extremist.

The truth is, the latest polls show that if the election were held today, we'd likely lose the pro-environment majority in the House of Representatives.

But the polling also shows our chances are improving in a number of key House races. Kansas's 3rd District. New Mexico's 2nd. Pennsylvania's 7th. Washington's 8th. California's 49th. Connecticut's 5th.

Just like Scholten's race against Gibbs in Michigan, these are all races where environmental leaders have a chance to beat pro-polluter MAGA candidates. I'm asking for your support today because I believe that these champions will lose without our help — and because we have to act now if we're going to turn out enough voters to make a difference.

Holding a pro-environment majority in the House is important for future generations and for our communities today. This critical election — with urgent stakes for our climate and democracy — is just around the corner, and we can't let MAGA extremists in the pocket of Big Oil win.

TRIPLE YOUR IMPACT: If we don't fully fund our electoral program right now, we could lose a pro-environment majority in Congress. Don't let that happen. Even $5 is enough to help.

Your support is an integral piece of winning this fight, Friend, not just in November, but for the long term. Thank you for being part of our work to elect more climate leaders who will build a better future for all.

Onward,
