Wondering why @genprogress Advocacy Associate @lotannaob is a #ClimateVoter? She grew up in California and is currently watching her home state burn due to climate change. Do you have a similar story? Share it with us at http://genprogress.org/climatevoter.com
Our senior press associate @emilyfleach also grew up in Northern California. She is a #ClimateVoter because as bad as this year’s wildfires were, she knows that each year they are only getting worse as a result of climate change.
Communities of color + low-income communities are disproportionately impacted by the climate crisis and are experiencing its ramifications every single day. Being from NY, @ellasuchwow has seen this firsthand. That's why she's a #ClimateVoter. http://genprogress.org/climatevoter .
Our director of comms+digital, @charlatanne, grew up in the US Virgin Islands and has seen hurricane season worsen—in 2017 the VI was devastated by 2 record-breaking cat 5s. She's a #ClimateVoter because her community shouldn't have to rebuild annually. http://genprogress.org/climatevoter
Born and raised in South FL, @whoisEdwith knows hurricanes are becoming worse/more frequent. The cost of rebuilding a life after a hurricane can be astronomical, putting more economic strain on under-resourced communities. That's why she's a #ClimateVoter. #ClimateChangeIsReal
GP Advocacy Associate @internetraheem is a #ClimateVoter. As a St. Louis native, he knows that the most vulnerable members of our society will be most impacted by environmental racism and climate change. Become a #ClimateVoter and share your story http://genprogress.org/climatevoter
Our exec director, @brentjcohen, lived in the South Bronx for years—an area hurt by poor air quality, high asthma rates, & other environmental racism. He is a #ClimateVoter because our generations & his kids' generation need us to take #ClimateAction
now! http://genprogress.org/climatevoter

Born & raised just outside D.C., @CAPenergypolicy's Sally has seen an increase in extreme rainfall & flooding firsthand. She knows that climate change doesn't impact us all equally—so she's a #ClimateVoter to ensure that climate justice = racial justice. http://genprogress.org/climatevoter
. @CAPenergypolicy's @hannahmalus is no stranger to impacts of the climate crisis. From witnessing deadly hurricanes growing up in Louisiana, to devastating drought while in college in CA, her experiences with extreme weather make her a #ClimateVoter. https://genprogress.org/climatevoter
