Received this e-mail today from climate hawk and progressive champ, U.S. Senator Brian Schatz (D. HI), in support of Katie McGinty’s (D. PA) U.S. Senate campaign:
Just weeks ago, world leaders announced an historic agreement to take decisive action to reverse the damaging effects of climate change and move the world towards a clean energy future.
This is exactly the kind of bold action the world needs, but the Republican majority in Washington is aggressively blocking this kind of progress, pedaling mistruths and trafficking in denials that leave our economy, our health, our environment, and our national security at risk.
That’s why it's so critical that we elect Katie McGinty to the U.S. Senate and put the Senate back in Democratic control.
Katie has dedicated her entire career to protecting the environment and facilitating job-creating investments in clean, renewable energy - which is exactly why Republicans would love nothing more than to see her fail.
Katie has a major deadline approaching, and she needs your help if she’s going to meet her fundraising goal and have the resources she needs to compete. Join me and contribute $5 to her campaign right now.
Republicans in Washington say climate change is a hoax. They’ve called the science “hysteria” and refused to acknowledge the grave responsibility human activity bears for this rapidly changing world.
We need a Democratic majority in the Senate if we're going to beat back the obstructionists and continue making progress on these critical issues. Without that majority, there’s no telling what kind of damage Republicans will inflict come 2017.
Katie’s biggest fundraising deadline of the entire year is just ahead, and there’s no time to lose. Contribute whatever you can afford right now to help her build this campaign and take on the climate change deniers in this election. A $5 contribution is all it takes to make a difference >>
Thanks for stepping up,
Brian Schatz
United States Senator
