Right now, Congress has a historic opportunity to
address the unprecedented crises that continue to
threaten our health, environment, and our economy.
President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda will
make science the backbone of federal
agencies, protect public health and help curb the
existential threat of the climate crisis.
Congress can vote as soon as THIS WEEK on a
bill that makes the big, bold, and ambitious investments
needed to tackle the climate crisis. With the
US Chamber of Commerce, Exxon, and other fossil fuel
companies out in force against this proposal, and its
fate is hanging in the balance, we need your help.
Your elected officials need to
hear from you. Sign this petition and show your
support.
The climate crisis has a direct connection to our
health. Addressing climate change will improve public
health by limiting pollution, improving air quality, and
reducing the threat of extreme weather. In March, the
President unveiled a bold infrastructure package to help
solve the connected challenges facing the U.S. -- the
pandemic, climate, justice, and jobs -- by investing in
clean energy, transportation, infrastructure, and new
and innovative technologies. The plan would also ensure
that at least 40% of the benefits of all the benefits of
these investments go to those communities that have
traditionally been overburdened by pollution, while
putting millions of people back to work. We can address
the climate crisis by cleaning up the dangerous air
pollution that harms frontline communities and all our
families.
We need your help - tell your
elected officials the time is now to #ActOnClimate by
signing this petition.
