DC Climate Rally—Every Day Counts

We have two months left of a Democratic presidency before four years of Donald Trump. Republicans have vowed to expand fossil fuel production, cater to industry at the expense of workers, and eliminate key climate funds in the hottest year in recorded history.

We intend to fight back, beginning with offense! Join us as we rally to pressure Biden to take major action on climate change before January! This is our last major moment on climate for at least two years—let's make it count.

Biden can take hundreds of actions on climate before Trump is sworn in. We must ramp up pressure to do far more! The time to act is now.
