🌊💧 ENSURE THE DROUGHT BILL SUCCEEDS! 💧🌊

Thanks to your incredible advocacy, the Drought Bill passed the Senate in June as part of a larger Climate and Energy Bill. HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE HOUSE VERSION.

🗓️ WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT NOW!

The two branches must reconcile their versions before the legislative session ends on July 31.

TAKE ACTION TO ENSURE DROUGHT MANAGEMENT PROVISIONS REMAIN IN THE FINAL BILL
Email the conference committee members and tell them you want climate adaptation and preparedness in this year’s Climate Bill!

🔗 Link in bio for full action alert with pre-written emails you can send in seconds!

📝 ADVOCACY IS A TEAM EFFORT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP! WE’RE IN THE FINAL STRETCH!
