Received this e-mail today from the League of Conservation Voters in support of Rob Quist (D. MT-AL) & Jon Ossoff’s (D. GA-06) campaigns:
There’s only 72 hours left to win the special House election in Montana.
The latest polls on the race have me cautiously optimistic. LCV Action Fund-endorsed candidate Rob Quist is within single digits of Trump ally Greg Gianforte, a staunch enemy of public lands. But there are only hours left for him to close the gap.
Both this special election and Jon Ossoff’s race in Georgia’s 6th District will be decided in the days ahead, and pro-environment candidates have a real shot at winning them both — but not if we don’t rush them the resources they need.
The country is distracted by the disturbing allegations and chaos coming out of the Trump administration, but this might be our best chance to reject the Trump agenda. Please, can you make an emergency gift to these two candidates today?

The Republican House leadership is terrified of losing these two races. Vice President Pence and Donald Trump, Jr. rushed to Montana to try to save Gianforte, whose lead in the polls has steadily shrunk. He lost the Montana governor’s race just months ago, and we have to make sure he loses this race too.
In Georgia’s 6th District, polls continue wobbling back and forth. This race has already become the most expensive House race in history — if polluter allies outspend Jon Ossoff in the final month, he won’t have a chance. Electing a pro-environment candidate in this typically Republican district is truly now-or-never. We can’t pass up this opportunity.
Rob Quist has made protecting public lands a pillar of his campaign and believes in strong protections for our air and water, and Jon Ossoff wants to make Georgia a leader in clean energy. Most importantly, they’re not afraid to stand up to Donald Trump, Republican leadership, and their polluter allies.

The next two years will be difficult, but these candidates are standing up to Big Polluter allies and fighting to defend the EPA, our air, our drinking water, and our climate. Let them know you stand with them: Please, chip in today.
