Issue: Environmental/Climate Justice

The Lab wrote our first newsletter about the GND* way back in January of 2019 when we walked through how both the policy and the organizing happening around the climate, labor, and justice framework reflected a number of evidence-based best practices for building a powerful movement. And WOW, a lot of progress has been made since then – including a suite of policies and programs like solar for all, direct pay, and the new American Climate Corps – with the GND’s fingerprints all over them. We are collaborating on this week’s newsletter with our good friends at the Green New Deal Network (GNDN), who have been serving as the hub of the GND movement, turning regular people’s demands into policy wins since 2019.
