.@ewarren gets it: "While climate change is an urgent threat, it's also the greatest opportunity of our time:
⚡️to rebuild our economy w/ 💯% clean energy,
⚖️address racial & economic inequality, and
👨🏽‍🔧create millions of good, union jobs in the process."

We can do this.
"When FDR said we'd build a historic air force of 185k planes to defeat the Nazis, America had a nascent military aircraft industry. But he rallied the nation to the task: by the end of WWII, we'd produced 300k aircraft in less than 5 yrs."
elizabethwarren.com/plans/green-jo…
"When JFK told the nation that we'd send a man to the moon in under a decade, people said that'd be impossible, too. But our top scientists & engineers came together & changed the world forever." —@ewarren on why America can deliver a #GreenNewDeal elizabethwarren.com/plans/green-jo…
"Today we face a new challenge. Defeating the climate crisis will require the ingenuity of the moon landing and an economic and industrial mobilization unseen since our efforts in WWII…The #GreenNewDeal is the answer to this national call." —@ewarren
elizabethwarren.com/plans/green-jo…
"I mean it when I say that defeating the climate crisis will be a top priority of my administration…America has a long and proud history of rising to the challenges that have faced this country—and defeating the climate crisis is no exception." —@ewarren

@sunrisemvmt
This upcoming week, Sunrise members will vote to determine if we endorse a presidential candidate ahead of the first primaries, and if so, who.

What does this process mean for Sunrise Movement?

Firstly, Sunrise has no north star that shines brighter than the #GreenNewDeal...
So if we endorse a candidate, it doesn't mean supporters of other candidates aren't welcome in our movement for the #GreenNewDeal.

It also doesn't mean we'll stop pushing all candidates to embrace our vision of the GND in a meaningful way, or uplifting their moments of advocacy
And if we don't endorse, it doesn't mean we don't think some candidates are better than others.

We will continue to uplift, criticize, and score candidates based on their vision and advocacy for the GND

It will mean that we will continue not to promote a candidate as *our pick*

We fight for a livable future. For the air we breathe. For the water we drink. For the places we call home.

But we also fight for a livable present. Polluters have poisoned the air, water, and soil in communities like #Flint or Kashmere Gardens.

#JusticeForKashmereGardens
Polluters poison us because there is money to be saved dumping waste in our backyards rather than disposing of it properly.

Just as companies like ExxonMobil lied about climate science so they could keep selling more oil, coal, and natural gas. They destroy our homes for profit.
They poison the air, sending asthma rates skyrocketing. They poison the water with lead, causing developmental disorders and brain damage. They poison the soil, elevating rates of cancer.

And it should come as no surprise to anybody that...

When faced with seemingly impossible challenges, American ingenuity has risen to meet them. We can do it again and defeat the climate crisis. The #GreenNewDeal is an opportunity to invest in a green economy and create 10.6 million new jobs. elizabethwarren.com/plans/green-jo…
I mean it when I say that defeating the climate crisis will be a top priority in my administration. My plans will enact a climate change agenda that not only reduces our carbon emissions, but also jumpstarts our economy and creates millions of new jobs.
To develop the green workforce of the future, we'll invest in expanding job training, and we'll make sure no worker is left behind as we transition to a clean economy. My administration will work hand-in-hand with unions to ensure these jobs have good wages and strong benefits.

#DemDebate 😘 Keep it Simple, Stupid. The specific plan doesn’t matter. What matters is this: ONLY #Democrats plan to provide universal healthcare. Trump won’t do. In fact he’ll take it away. So we can go bold or not. All Dem plans are lightyears better than Dickensian GOP future
🎯@JulianCastro: “Open Borders” is a right-wing talking point.
