"The Inflation Reduction Act, the Midterm Election, and YOU" Please join us to hear from special guest speaker RL Miller from Climate Hawks Vote. One of the most important climate actions we can take is to vote for candidates who, regardless of their political affiliations, understand and accept the science behind climate change and are willing to make mitigating it their top priority. In this talk, we will learn about a resource that will help us evaluate how politicians rank in their commitment to fighting the climate crisis, protecting the environment, and ensuring environmental justice. We will also examine the intersection of climate politics and policy, learn more about the Inflation Reduction Act, and gain insights into the midterm election.
