WE DID IT! The House has passed the #InflationReductionAct, sending it to President Biden for his signature. This is a historic moment for action on #ClimateChange, and CCL will work to ensure that there is more to come.
The White House and the Senate are getting the message that we MUST address #ClimateChange now! We're close to hitting our goal of 15,000 messages. Take a few minutes to help us hit the target.

Happy King Day! At the heart of the civil rights movement was the work to ensure that everyone can be full participants in our democracy, work that continues today.
During our last chapter meeting, members agreed how upsetting it was to see progress on this bill come to a halt, but it’s important to remain optimistic. Negotiations are not over, and we can hope for compromise on the prospect of climate change. https://t.co/6Jr8tWBCnx
A few (thousand) emails ought to get our message across! Can you help us write to the President encouraging him to support climate policies? It takes less than 3 minutes and we've got a pre-filled email you can edit at our site ➡️ https://t.co/lMoxEcrUAx.
It's a beautiful day in Austin today, and when I walk outside my office into the gentle sunlight, it occurs to me how wonderful and comforting it must be to think the climate crisis is all a hoax.
Happy National Write Congress Day! In 2021, CCL members wrote to Congress over 156,000 times. We want to set a new record in 2022. Use our action tool to drop a note to your members of Congress and ask them to support climate action legislation this year!

Thank you, Jill!
We are so proud of the accomplishments made by CCL and grateful for the passionate people who make it all happen! We want to take time to highlight members of our Appleton chapter as they are key to giving this organization success and fulfillment. 🌎 🌟
Reminder: The U.S. is NOT one of the 69 countries that have implemented a national carbon pricing policy, but it SHOULD be!
"Most economists agree that carbon pricing is the most effective tool there is to transition to a low carbon economy.”

Check out this photo of the Wisconsin District 8 Lobby meeting with @chairmang last night! It was a great discussion and we are thankful he and his staff members took the time to speak to this awesome group and discuss the importance of mitigating #climatechange
Who says it doesn’t pay to address #climate? We surprised trick-or-treaters with #CarbonCashbacks that could pass in the budget bill THIS YEAR & lower emissions 50% in 10 yrs. The Senate will decide re: a #PriceOnCarbon this week. Call to say u support it➡️https://t.co/EQlYSTAcIM
Putting a #PriceOnCarbon is the biggest & boldest step we can take to respond to climate change.
My bill, HR 2307, the Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act, will deliver near zero carbon emissions by 2050 & will rebate 100% of the polluters' payments to America's families.
