🌱Take Action NOW for a Green Amendment Hearing Before it’s Too Late! 🌱
Enough’s Enough -- 4 Yrs. & 70 NJ Legislative Cosponsors!
Once Again – the New Jersey Green Amendment (ACR72/SCR15) has been delayed, not even one hearing this legislative session despite a four-year struggle and strong support from 70 legislative cosponsors. It’s still not too late beginning with a Senate hearing in March.
Your right to clean air and water matters; you deserve to be heard. Tweet, email & call legislators to get hearings this Spring in time to get your rights on the ballot this year!
6 Chances For Action This Week (Do as much as works for you but do something :-) )
Phone Bank Zoom with us -- we will provide a script and call legislators in support of the Green Amendment. Register here for Friday, 3/18, at 3:30PM and register here for Monday, 3/21, at 7PM.
Tweet about the NJ Green Amendment and urge legislators to do all they can to get ACR72/SCR15 a hearing this Spring. The Tool Kit has sample tweets to key legislators.
Email key legislators with this automatic sender link to push the same message.
Call key legislators on your own time -- any time of day but before March 23 will do:
Find your 3 legislators’ numbers here (leave a voicemail off hours or a message with staff during business hours) and urge them to sponsor, and otherwise work to ensure, your right to clean water & air (ACR72/SCR15) has a hearing this Spring!
Make your efforts more impactful, call the 2 legislators with direct powers to grant a hearing: Assembly Speaker Coughlin & Senate President Scutari; and
Call legislative champions who have powerful influence if they speak up: Assembly members: McKeon, Benson, Kennedy & Stanley; and Senators: Greenstein, Zwicker, Ruiz & Cunningham. And thank Senator Smith for taking the steps to secure a hearing!
Sign on your organization as a supporter of the NJ Green Amendment here!
Get others to do the same, organize!
Again, please take action today to get your right to clean air and water a hearing this Spring and get others to do the same. Contact camryn@forthegenerations.org for any questions and/or to get more involved in the campaign.
