Massive Campaign For Green New Deal. Join In?

Dec 4, 2018

In solidarity,  Mike Fox for Alan, Mike H., Janis, Deb, Dan, Dr. Bill, Kim, Bryan, and Shayna—your PDA National Team

Urge Your Congress Member
To Support The Green New Deal

We’re part of a huge coalition including Move On, Food And Water Watch, and Public Citizen that is calling for a Green New Deal. The time for incremental approaches to climate change has passed.  We need bold action to overcome this most pressing challenge.

Step 1 is actually getting a special committee authorized in congress to address these issues with the urgency they require.  While newly elected progressives like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, along with a wave of young people across the country spearheaded this charge, it’s great to see we have many current members of congress on board already, including PDA Advisory Board members Tulsi Gabbard and Jamie Raskin! 

We have a very short window of opportunity to make this happen before congress goes into recess.  We’re asking our grass roots activists to do a simple delivery of a pre-written letter to your local congressional office on or before Monday, Dec. 10.

If you’re up for making this happen, email Mike Fox right now.

Also, we’ll be holding a conference call tonight to go over details.  Join us!

Green New Deal Letter Drop Conference Call*
Tues. Dec. 4
