About
This August recess, join us in meeting with Representative Kristen McDonald Rivet's office to urge Congress to protect clean air and public health. From wildfire smoke to worsening pollution, Michigan families are already feeling the impacts of the climate crisis. Every community deserves clean air, strong public health protections, and leaders who will stand up for the policies that keep us safe. Whether you are meeting with an elected official for the first time or have advocated before, your voice matters. We will provide a briefing on the issues, walk through the agenda together, and support you throughout the meeting. Join us as we call on Representative McDonald Rivet to defend the Clean Air Act, support strong clean air standards, and protect the health of communities across Michigan.
