About
This August recess, join us in meeting with Senator Elissa Slotkin's office to urge Congress to act on climate. As the climate crisis accelerates and we witness fresh attacks on clean energy, climate science, and the protections that keep our communities healthy, we need leaders in Congress to stand up for clean air and public health. From wildfire smoke to worsening pollution, Michigan families are already feeling the impacts. Whether you're a first-time advocate or a seasoned organizer, your voice matters. We'll provide everything you need — including a briefing on the issues and support throughout the meeting. Join us as we call on Senator Slotkin to champion clean air protections, defend the Clean Air Act, and ensure every Michigan community has the healthy future it deserves.
