ACT FOR A DEMOCRACY THAT WORKS FOR ALL

caely.barrett@gmail.com

Background

No matter what we look like or where we live, we all deserve to reach our full potential and have our vote count.  But Trump and his GOP help only themselves and their donors while trying to silence our voices.  

Trump and his GOP know they are losing.  They cheat and bully us to distract from their failures to protect us from COVID and climate enhanced natural disasters. 

We know better.  We know that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will help our communities with plans to address climate change and COVID.

  • Joe and Kamala climate plan makes sure 40% of the overall benefits of spending on clean-energy and infrastructure upgrades go to environmental justice communities. 

  • Joe and Kamala will address COVID day one, improving testing, access to protective equipment, and helping our schools. Their stimulus plan to help us out of the COVID economy includes climate plan and green jobs. 

We know better. We know we can come together this election season to make sure every vote is counted and swear in Joe, Kamala, and a Democratic Congress.  

Act for a democracy that works for all: call Congress to pass the HEROS Act and Get Out The Vote.
