Dear allies –
Senator Manchin's at it again, trying to pass his dirty deal for the 3rd time. We must now turn our pressure to the Senate to stop Manchin once again. The senate plans to vote tomorrow morning whether to attach it to another end of year spending bill!
On Tuesday, December 6, it was announced that Manchin’s Dirty Side Deal did not have the votes it needed to be attached to the annual defense spending bill. This is because of the tremendous grassroots pressure we’ve mobilized! Thank you to each and everyone of you who made calls, wrote letters to the editors, organized actions…and more! Unfortunately, we have to keep up the fight.
Can you take 2 minutes to make a call to your senator’s office right now? Dial 888-997-5380
Despite last weeks win, Manchin is now trying to find another vehicle for his dirty and unjust deal: either through an amendment to the defense bill, or by trying to attach it to the end-of-year spending bill. That is why we all need to contact our Senators right NOW.
Call your senator at 888-997-5380. When you’re connected, here’s what to say.
“I’m urging my senator to vote NO on any amendment that would advance Manchin’s dirty permitting deal. I'm deeply concerned about any legislation that would fast-track fossil fuel projects and undermine our ability to give input on new energy projects.”
Once you made your call, take the next step: join a phone bank this week to generate more calls to priority senators, Register today!
What’s clear: people power and organizing works! Thank you for sticking with us and making calls at this critical time.
In solidarity,
Team 350 Chicago
