Support Bold Investments in Clean Transportation and Energy

From the Environmental Defense Fund (https://www.edf.org/):

The United States is on the verge of building a cleaner, healthier and more equitable future.

But to truly power up the economy and reduce the pollution that causes climate change we need to show support for big and bold investments in our nation’s infrastructure — and that means transformations that go beyond roads and bridges.

With your support at https://act.edf.org/euxfo8a we can accelerate the adoption of clean energy, install hundreds of thousands of charging stations, replace lead pipes, and ensure that the U.S. leads the market in electric cars, trucks and bus manufacturing.

We need bold climate action that moves us to clean transportation and clean power, which are the largest sources of climate pollution and top sources of air pollution in our country.

This pollution causes serious harm to our communities, accounting for over 6 million premature deaths each year, especially in low-income communities and communities of color. A recent study found that Black Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans and other people of color in the U.S. are exposed to 37% more transportation-related air pollution than white residents.

By signing this petition, you’ll raise your voice with the thousands of Americans who are calling on our leaders to take the next step to create millions of jobs, protect the health of our communities and foster a stronger, cleaner, more equitable economy. This is our moment to combat the climate crisis, make our neighborhoods healthier and address long-overlooked pollution impacts on low-income communities and communities of color.

Our country wins when our leaders take bold action — and this is our moment to go bold! Amplify your voice by signing the “Go Bold, America!” Climate Action Petition.
