document/d/17egyoCzuXh_ J3GXc2k6Zz-ciDi3A2Vs4ao_ TJwZqLmU/edit?usp=sharing This week, NY Renews and One NY Indivisible are organizing a non-stop week of action for the Climate and Community Investment Act (CCIA) and the THRIVE Agenda — fighting for climate, jobs, and justice at the state and federal level.
Congress is in recess, and the state legislature should pass a budget soon, so this is a perfect time to remind them who they work for and what we demand! When they return to session in mid-April, climate, jobs, and justice must be a priority!
The week of action will include town halls, socially-distanced rallies, virtual lobby visits, and social media actions — there’s something for everyone to participate and demand a climate justice recovery and an economy that works for all! You can see a full list of activities for the week here & below!
All Week: Virtual Lobby Visits for the CCIA!
All week long, we’ll be virtually meeting with our state legislators and demanding they co-sponsor and champion the CCIA. Find a visit near you here!
Wednesday: Socially-distanced Local Rallies
On Wednesday, we’ll hold small, socially-distanced rallies across the state in support of the CCIA and the THRIVE Agenda. Find a rally near you!
Friday: Town Hall with Senator Schumer
On Friday, we’ll hold a huge town hall with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and other leaders. Ask questions directly about the need for a climate, jobs, and justice recovery! RSVP here.
All Week: Social media actions & video rollout
We’ll also have a week of social media actions to make our work super-visible to our legislators and our communities, culminating in the rollout of a new video! Stay tuned for our social toolkit.
This week is going to be huge — and it will only be a success with your help! Find an action, plug in, and let’s win climate, jobs, and justice for our communities!
