Join us for the DC Green Budget Day of Action on Monday, May 4th

Organizations and residents from across the District are gathering at 8am on June 16th at the John A Wilson building, calling on the DC Council: Don’t defund our communities and our climate in our local DC budget. After a press conference, green-shirted supporters will descend on the Wilson building, meeting with Councilmembers and staff, sitting in committee hearings, and taking creative action to call attention to the need to sustain DC’s local budget commitments to our neighborhoods, our climate, and our natural places.

Why: We continue to see that when DC’s local budget is tight, DC’s funds to protect nature, ensure environmental health and justice, make energy bills affordable, support public transit, and reduce carbon emissions are some of the first to be cut. This has to stop. Our communities and our climate cannot wait. We cannot continue to sell out the District’s future, the health of our neighbors, workers, and communities, and the ongoing environmental justice fights in our city. With this day of action we hope to send a clear message to District leaders: don’t touch our green programs!
