John, it’s Earth Day — a moment for us to celebrate our planet and take action to protect it. And state and local leaders are the ones leading the charge.
They’re the representatives helping communities recover after a storm, deciding where to build green infrastructure, and stretching limited budgets to future-proof neighborhoods.
We’ve already seen what's possible when local leaders step up. In Virginia, RFS-endorsed Delegates Phil Hernandez and Michael Feggans passed legislation to launch a crucial statewide study that will guide how the state funds coastal resilience projects.
Their work means local governments can finally plan and invest in long-term solutions — like restoring wetlands, building floodwalls, and raising homes — without being left in the dark.
Run for Something is fighting to elect more candidates like Phil and Michael — but we can’t do it without your help.
Thank you for taking action for our planet this Earth Day.
