Hello relatives!

I don’t know if you heard, but President Biden has stated that he is considering declaring a Climate Emergency! This is an official action that would allow the President to use his executive powers to stop the expansion of fossil fuels on federal lands. Read here to learn what he could do. 

First off – this would not have happened if it wasn’t for our Indigenous land defenders and water protectors stepping up and taking action.  

However, latest intel suggests Biden is waffling on making this declaration, even as communities across the country suffer from extreme fossil-fueled heat.

We need to flood the White House phone line NOW and ongoing until he follows through – not only for a climate emergency declaration, but also immediate action to stop approving fossil fuel leasing, exports, pipelines and other infrastructure.

Will you share with your communities, supporters, members, whoever you can reach?

Please get out your phone and queue up emails, texts, whatever you can to get your people calling the White House:
