Dear John,
Following the 2022 midterm elections, Ceres and its networks stand ready to build upon historic U.S. climate action and investments of the past year, as companies and investors remain committed to advancing bipartisan solutions that will keep the U.S. competitive and benefit communities and economies across the country.
Ceres has worked with companies and investors for more than a decade to advance state and federal climate and clean energy policies. Ceres was at the forefront of mobilizing corporate support for the Inflation Reduction Act, ultimately working with more than 2,900 companies that counted more than $5.1 trillion in annual revenue and more than 400 million global employees to advocate for its climate, clean energy, and environmental justice investments.
Since passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, Ceres, along with some of the nation’s leading food and apparel companies, has begun to champion a climate-smart Farm Bill, meeting with members of Congress on both sides of the aisle to share their priorities to modernize the U.S. agricultural system.
Investors and companies also continue to advocate with Ceres for smart executive actions and regulatory initiatives from the Biden administration, including the finalization of the SEC’s climate disclosure rule and implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act.
With your support, we will continue to work with both sides of the political aisle to call for robust policies at the state and federal levels to support the transition to clean energy and transportation needed to avoid the worst impacts of the climate crisis. |
Thank you,
