Today, 350NH Action endorses former Vice President Joe Biden for President of the United States and Senator Kamala Harris for Vice President for the following reasons:
Our movement has proven that we can hold him accountable and move him ahead on solving climate issues. We did this throughout his primary campaign in NH.
When in office, the Biden-Harris climate plan will be the most progressive, wide-reaching of any U.S. administration ever. While we don’t agree with everything in the Biden-Harris climate plan, we do believe that we can start winning a Green New Deal under their administration.
While criticisms of Biden’s past actions are warranted, it is clear that what the Biden-Harris ticket offers going forward is far superior to anything to come out of a Trump administration and we ask that you hold the complexity of an imperfect system within our endorsement of Biden and Harris. Their platform reflects our vision for bold climate action and solutions to the overlapping crises of the COVID-19 Pandemic, economic inequality and white supremacy.
We join our friends at national 350 Action, and at countless other progressive organizations in seizing the moment to make every vote count. As 350 NH Action Executive Director Lila Kohrman-Glaser says, “Our country is facing the overlapping crises of unchecked climate change, economic inequality, COVID-19 and now, direct threats to American democracy. It is more clear than ever before that the path forward to a just and equitable future is with the Biden and Harris ticket. We will do our part to vote in record numbers, to ensure that every vote is counted and we will take to the streets if necessary. We ask that you join us, so that we may begin the decade of the Green New Deal.”
