What do we do?

We use our talents for political advocacy

We’re committed to building the political will for the climate solutions we all need. As empowered citizens, we talk with neighbors, friends, and local officials about how national climate action can help ensure a healthy future while strengthening the American economy. Through developing respectful relationships, cultivating and demonstrating local support, and promoting a climate solution that has appeal across the political spectrum, we move our leaders towards action that will preserve a healthy climate and a livable world. 

Our goal: get climate solutions passed into law

Our primary goal right now is teaching lawmakers, organizations, influential people, and citizens within our congressional districts about a bill introduced in Congress, H.R. 2307, the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, which we believe would be the most effective climate solution if enacted into law. We seek to bring the effects of the climate crisis and how this bill could work to solve it to everyone we meet in the hopes that they will endorse the bill and maybe even become advocates themselves. 

As of 2023, CCL's policy agenda is now focused on these 4 areas:

• Price on Carbon

• Healthy Forests

• Building Electrification and Efficiency

• Clean Energy Permitting Reform
