1. Write a letter to our members of Congress to tell them that climate change is real and is affecting our lives in Colorado. Pick a topic to write about:

• Trump's proposed 2018 budget discontinues EPA's international climate change programs and cuts 50% of the Office of Research and Development.
• Trump's Proposed 2018 budget eliminates Energy Star, the weatherization assistance program.
• Trump's "Presidential Executive Order on Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth" initiates a review of Obama's Clean Power Plan, rescinds the moratorium on coal mining on US federal lands, and rescinds at least six Obama-era executive orders aimed at curbing climate change and regulating carbon emissions.
• U.S. must continue to support and not pull out of the recent Paris Climate Agreement.
• U.S. must fully fund the Global Change Research Act of 1990, which was signed by President George H.W. Bush with bipartisan support.

​2. Be sure to include your mailing address. 

3. After you complete your letter, change the header so that we have three letters from you -- one to each member of Congress. So, one letter to Senator Gardner, one to Senator Bennet, and one to Congresswoman DeGette. Make any other tweaks necessary, if you personalized any of the letters.

4. Scan your signed letters.

5. Email your scan as an attachment to denveractioncommittee@gmail.com by Wednesday, April 11, 9 am. 

6. When we meet the staff, we will present them with your letters.

7. Ask a friend to write a letter too!
