Hi All,

 

Very exciting news from Senator Barrett’s Office. If you didn’t get a copy see his email below. I hope you will join me at the hearing. This is the most important thing we can do right now to move Mike Barrett’s bill to put a price on carbon forward. 

 

Best,

Subject: Hearing set for Sen. Barrett's carbon pricing bill

 

Friends,

 

I am extremely pleased to inform you that Sen. Barrett’s carbon pricing bill, S. 1747, An Act combating climate change, has been set for a hearing by the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities & Energy:

                                                                                                                                                                 

Tuesday, October 27^th at 1pm 

Hearing Room B-1 of the State House

 

WE NEED A VERY IMPRESSIVE TURNOUT.  Sen. Barrett’s bill has been gaining huge momentum.  We’re up to 44 co-sponsors -- more than 20% of the State Legislature.  A big thank you to the most recent co-sponsors: Sen. Marc Pacheco, Rep. Paul Schmid and Rep. Ken Gordon.  Outside the building, Sen. Barrett has been speaking to Democratic Town Committees across the state, with more than 20 endorsing carbon pricing.  

 

Sen. Barrett’s even been invited to speak to his first Republican Town Committee.  This thing needs to be bi-partisan and we have a solution that progressives and conservatives agree on.  We’re working with businesspeople, religious leaders and concerned citizens who are worried about the impact climate change will have on their kids and grandkids.

That’s why it’s crucial that you come on Tuesday the 27^th … and bring as many other supporters as you can.

 

You may also submit written testimony to the Chairs of the Committee.

 

Please forward this email to as many friends as you’d like.

 

Best,
