The coronavirus pandemic has made it clear: legislators must listen to the science and move proactively to prevent disaster. Massachusetts politicians must match their extraordinary leadership on COVID-19 with unprecedented climate action to protect future generations and give us the financial security we need today.

We call on the legislature to pass legislation in 2020 that:
1. Commits Massachusetts to zero greenhouse gas emissions by or before 2050, with 50% reduction by 2030.
2. Funds our transition to a green economy with corporate polluter fees along with investments and rebates that give money directly to low and moderate-income people.
3. Protects low-income people and people of color.

We call on you to pass strong climate legislation before the end of 2020 that:

1. Commits Massachusetts to zero greenhouse gas emissions by or before 2050, with 50% reduction by 2030 (closest legislation: H.2836, H3983)

2. Funds our transition to a green economy with corporate polluter fees along with investments and rebates that give money directly to low and moderate-income people (closest legislation: H.2810)

3. Protects low-income people and people of color (closest legislation: H.4264)
