In 2020, climate voters turned out in record numbers to help protect our families, our democracy, and ensure a livable future. Today, we must do the same.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhatever our color, background, or zip code, we must show up to vote for leaders who will be champions for freedom, justice, and a livable future. We need leaders who will protect our right to vote and ensure our voices are heard, especially when the American people are so clearly demanding climate action. What happens at the polls will determine our ability to protect each other and our planet for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOil and gas executives and other powerful corporate interests want to keep us home by spreading misinformation and contributing to politicians supporting voter suppression efforts.<strong> In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/usa\/research\/big-oil-money-looms-large-in-competitive-elections\/\">new data shows<\/a> that the oil and gas industry has spent on estimated average of $4.3 million for key Senate and $490,000 for key House seats supporting their back-pocket candidates.<\/strong> This election is set to be the most expensive midterms ever. We must stay the course against unprecedented millionaire money funding extremist candidates, election overthrowers, and rampant disinformation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe need champions in Congress who will fight for us. We cannot achieve the necessary victories for our communities, our children, our air, water, lands, wildlife, and climate without a healthy, functioning democracy. Expanding the number of climate champions in the U.S. House and Senate would be a major step towards protecting our freedoms and securing a future where we all thrive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis election puts us at a critical crossroads: one path sends us towards climate catastrophe,\u00a0 the weakening of our democracy, and more injustice. The other path, which I am calling on us to take today, is a chance to improve our lives and protect our planet together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">###<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Greenpeace USA <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is part of a global network of independent campaigning organizations that use peaceful protest and creative communication to expose global environmental problems and promote solutions that are essential to a green and peaceful future.
