Dear John,

 

🎉 The Build Back Better Act is headed to the Senate! 🎉

 

Thanks to months — and decades — of organizing by you, your neighbors, frontline communities, young people, labor leaders, environmental advocates, and many more, we are one step closer to finally passing climate legislation at the scale and speed that science and justice demand. This is a rare moment of victory in the fight for climate justice and we should celebrate!

 

We are incredibly grateful to Congresswoman Pingree for championing this once-in-a-generation investment throughout the process. Our celebration is unfortunately dampened by our deep disappointment in Congressman Golden for voting no on this package, which will tackle climate change and help Maine families.

 

Fortunately, Congressman Golden will have a chance to right this mistake. Once the Senate reviews and acts on this historic bill, it will return to the House for final approval — giving Congressman Golden another opportunity to make clear his support for bold climate action.

 

Click here to call Rep. Golden now and urge him to vote YES when the Build Back Better Act returns to the House for final passage. It only takes one minute and we make the process easy for you.

The Build Back Back Better Act will transform our society by:

  • Saving people money on their energy bills and other monthly expenses,
  • Investing in the frontline and communities of color that have suffered the most from toxic pollution,
  • Creating and sustaining millions of good-paying union jobs in the clean energy economy,
  • Developing an affordable early care and education system for families including free pre-K for 3 and 4 year olds,
  • Building new homes for hundreds of thousands of the country's lowest-income people and weatherizing up to 1 million affordable homes,
  • Extending the expanded Child Tax Credit, which reduced the number of American families reporting they don’t have enough food to eat by one-third,
  • Beginning a bold, inclusive family and medical leave program that is poised to guarantee every worker in the country paid leave to care for themselves and their loved ones, and Implementing the biggest expansion of affordable health care in a decade.

Please make a quick phone call to Congressman Golden's office right now and urge him to vote yes when the transformative Build Back Better Act returns to the House. Click here to start your call and we'll walk you through the process.

 

We thank the dozens of you who have made calls, hundreds who have emailed, and folks who have joined us to rally in-person to urge Rep. Golden to do the right thing and support this historic legislation. Let’s keep up the fight!

 

Thank you,

Abbie
