Received this e-mail today from State Senator Daniel Biss’ (D. IL) gubernatorial campaign:
Hello there,
For over a century, Sierra Club has been on the frontlines of a mission to protect the water, air, land, and open spaces in our state. With Donald Trump and Bruce Rauner, that mission has never been under attack more than now.
To take on the big fights ahead, we’ll need a partner who will put the health of our communities ahead of big polluters. That’s why Sierra Club is proud to endorse Daniel Biss and Litesa Wallace to be the next governor and lieutenant governor of Illinois.
Now we want to hear from you -- will you join Sierra Club and add your endorsement to Daniel’s campaign for governor?
Daniel’s fight for clean energy and a people and planet first agenda is proof of his commitment to fighting climate change. Daniel was the first gubernatorial candidate to pledge to not take money from the fossil fuel industry, and to call for a transition to a 100% clean energy future for Illinois. And during his time as a lawmaker, he fought and won battles for clean energy, recycling, and equality.
We trust Daniel to continue this commitment in the governor’s office by fighting for 100% clean energy, funding for green infrastructure, and reduction of carbon pollution. And Daniel knows that we can create good jobs in clean energy across the state, especially in communities that need them most.
Join Sierra Club Illinois in our fight to protect our state’s most precious resources. Add your name to show you’re committed to putting Daniel in the governor’s office.
While Donald Trump and Bruce Rauner take us backwards by doing favor after favor for their polluter friends, we need a leader who will stand up to the companies that are poisoning our communities. Daniel is the candidate we can trust to put our planet over profit.
Glad to have you as a partner in this fight,
Kady
