CLIMATE CHAMPIONS PROGRAM
growing the ranks of Climate Champions This year we and our newly formed sibling 501(c)(4) organization, Climate Solutions Action Fund, launched an exciting new program. The purpose of the Climate Champions Program is to develop and support more climate champions in elected office. We launched this program to fill what we and others identified as a significant hole in the climate ecosystem in the Northwest. While an increasing number of elected officials in the region are generally supportive of climate action, there are still too few that have climate as their top priority and the issue that they will discuss on the campaign trail, sponsor and run legislation on, and demand action for during busy legislative sessions. In order to accelerate climate action at the speed and scale required, we simply need more climate champions in elected office. Our new program will develop innovative efforts in partnership with other organizations to make this happen. We are piloting the program in Washington in 2024 and hope to expand into Oregon in coming years. In order to accelerate climate action at the speed and scale required, we simply need more climate champions in elected office. Washington Rep. Sharlett Mena and Sen. Rebecca Saldaña speak with Climate Champions Program Director James Williams
