- This session of Congress isn’t over. The Farm Bill just passed the House and will now be debated in the Senate. Republicans may try to pass a third party-line reconciliation bill this summer. At the same time, Members of Congress say they want to pass bi-partisan legislation before the mid-terms.
- Congress is under pressure to lower gas and electricity prices. Americans want clean energy and environmental fairness. We need to remind Members of Congress that Americans that the way to affordability is cheap, clean energy from sun and wind.
- The Administration just released a long-awaited report on FEMA. Now the pressure is on Congress to act to protect communities suffering from climate-fueled disasters.
- Public lands
- We can win! The Administration has failed to stop the growth of renewable energy. The vast majority of new electricity generation is from renewables and sales of electric cars are growing. Federal courts ordered that work restart on 5 offshore wind projects targeted by the administration and blocked the Administration from barring solar and wind projects on federal land.
- Showing up is essential. We’re protecting democracy by keeping the pressure on Members of Congress and letting them know what we expect when they come back after the midterm elections.
Massachusetts residents will meet with Ed Markey’s office at 3PM and Elizabeth Warren’s office at 4PM. Anyone who signs up for the meetings will get the Zoom links.
If you are an out-of-town member and would like to know what time the meetings are scheduled with your state’s senators, please email Rav Leah
