Climate Action Phonebank
2023-09-14 18:00 - 20:00 | Virtual
This Fall is perhaps the last, best and only shot to take meaningful climate action in Michigan.
For the first time in the modern era of the environmental movement, Michigan has elected a conservation majority; setting the stage for us to boldly pursue a transition to clean energy, clean water, a strong democracy, and create a livable future for all Michiganders.
Environmental Champions in the State Legislature have introduced the Clean Energy Future Plan to transition Michigan to 100% Clean Energy and tackle the climate crisis head on.
We need to make sure it passes, and it is absolutely critical that lawmakers hear from constituents in support of this legislation.
You’re invited to join us for a Climate Action Phonebank to help ensure that we get this important legislation across the finish line and onto the Governor’s Desk!

Phonebank for Water Affordability

The Macomb County Commission is planning to vote on a resolution in opposition to Affordable Water Legislation at the state level. Join us in urging the Macomb County Commission to instead, support this legislation because it would benefit most Michiganders while costing the wealthiest among us a very small amount each year.

This includes addressing issues like doubled water costs since 1980 and the public health importance highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Initiatives like the Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program have helped, but a statewide approach is crucial.
Join us for a patch-through Phonebank, where we’ll encourage Macomb residents to leave a voicemail for the Macomb County Commission in support of this water affordability bill package.
