Letter Register to vote if you haven't already
As we look at the voting opportunities 2024 will present in this important election year, let’s make sure we vote on behalf of our climate.
To stabilize our climate and protect our environment, it’s essential that we elect climate activists across the political spectrum who will support the need for quickly reducing greenhouse gas emissions with key solutions, such as carbon pricing, climate-friendly trade incentives, permitting reform, electrification of buildings and transportation, and healthy forest and agricultural policy.
Ask your candidates for political office how they will address climate change. Communicate that in order to earn your vote, you expect clear, determined and economically smart plans about how they will tackle the climate challenges that negatively affect all of us.
Please register to vote if you haven’t already, and vote in the May 21 Oregon primary and Nov. 5 general elections for bipartisan climate action in 2024.
