We’re not done yet

John, Historically, voter turnout is much lower in non-presidential election years. But in this year’s mid-term elections, we’re working to defy that trend. Already in primary elections in California and many states across the country, turnout has surpassed 2018 midterm ge…

Support public accountability

  John, In recent years, we’ve seen an alarming pattern of right-wing political groups self-identifying as “churches” to take advantage of special tax rules that shield their activities from public scrutiny and disclosure. It’s cynical, corrupt, and it’s a growing problem…

We need more climate advocates in Congress

  John, The climate crisis is the most pressing challenge facing our generation. Jared has long been on the frontlines of climate action in Congress because he knows that complacency is simply not an option. Climate change, clean energy, and environmental protection can’…

year-round wildfire season

  John — There have already been thousands of wildfires this year in California alone. Our state is in the midst of a severe drought, and we’re on track to continue outpacing extreme heat records for the rest of summer with little to no rain, which only increases the ris…

A win for climate action and working families

  John, The sweeping funding bill we just passed will fundamentally change our fight against climate change and will provide long-awaited relief to families everywhere. The Inflation Reduction Act is the largest-ever federal investment in climate action. After decades of…

This is a turning point

  John, Our fight for democratic values has always been important. But between the radical Supreme Court, red-state Governors and state legislatures, and extreme MAGA Republicans in Congress, the threats to our fundamental rights and values are escalating. Our work to win…

Jared wants to hear from you

  John – We know there’s a lot at stake in the 2022 election. From reproductive rights to climate action and gun violence prevention, extremists on the right have rolled back decades of progress – and this election is our chance to stop them. Jared is working tirelessly …

The public needs to know

  John — We have known for some time that Donald Trump bears some responsibility for the violent insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. After all, he summoned the mob, filled them with lies about the election, and directed them to go to the Capitol that fateful d…

A disturbing path

  John – Our country is headed down a very disturbing path. Extreme conservatives steadily chipped away at civil rights for decades, and their work was only accelerated with the Trump presidency. Now, with a conservative majority on the Supreme Court, they are getting ex…

Something we CAN do on the climate crisis

More than “thoughts and prayers”

some crypto is bad for the climate

I am outraged, and you should be, too.

why me?
