The D.C. Day of Action was a peak moment in Power for Purpose Campaign!
Together, we heard from Members of Congress as well as keynote speakers about the intersection of climate change, racial justice, and voting rights. We built community among justice leaders and activists and held lobby meetings on Capitol Hill. Our advocacy also included pressing the Biden administration to adopt strong regulations to limit climate pollution.
