Stand with Climate Champions in Congress

The Issue

President Obama and other world leaders are poised to reach a historic global climate agreement in Paris. More than 150 countries, representing over 90% of global emissions have already stepped up making official climate commitments. Our top champions in Congress are supporting this effort and calling for a deal that will ensure that every country does its fair share to reduce carbon pollution and meet our obligation to leave our children and grandchildren a better future.

Unfortunately, Big Polluters and their allies in Congress are doing everything they can to undermine President Obama’s climate leadership and the growing momentum for an international agreement. They are trying to block the EPA’s Clean Power Plan that sets the first ever national standard to reduce carbon pollution from power plants, and they even held an entire hearing just to grill U.S. Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern, the lead U.S. Climate Negotiator.

Show your support for our environmental champions in Congress who are standing up to these attacks and making international climate action a top priority. Send your thank you message now.
