Friend,

This month a prideful nation celebrated the
Apollo 11 Moon mission. It's been 50 years since astronauts Neil
Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins lifted off from
NASA's Kennedy Space Center and made history.

Just eight years earlier, in 1961, President John
F. Kennedy made a bold claim that an American would walk on the
moon by the end of the decade. Armstrong and Aldrin did just
that.

Today, we face a similarly audacious challenge
when it comes to addressing climate change. The climate crisis is
our greatest challenge and we must commit to solving it. But we
need to think big. We did that when President Kennedy said we'd
go to the moon and I'm confident we have what it takes to do that
now when it comes to climate change. After all, innovation is
what America does best.

Some may think this is too big or complex of an
issue to solve, but this country has the imagination and
ingenuity to solve the climate crisis -- but we must act now.

I have discussed the climate crisis issue on the
Senate floor on numerous occasions, sponsored bills to reduce
carbon emissions and modernize our energy infrastructure, and
brought the issue to the forefront of the Presidential debates by
writing to top officials at NBC.

With the second round of presidential debates
this week, I am disturbed by how little climate change is being
discussed. Voters deserve a vigorous and thorough debate with
detailed answers from the candidates.

I'm thankful that CNN decided to take climate
change seriously and host a town hall. But, the DNC is not
involved and they need to be. Our public demands are being heard,
and the CNN town hall is a good step forward, but we need a
DNC-hosted climate debate.

If you agree with me, I'm asking you to make your
voice heard. We need to put pressure on the DNC to address these
concerns by making climate change a central issue in the primary
process. I would appreciate it if you could click here and add
your name to my petition
