Environmental organizations unveil ‘Green New Deal pledge’ for 2022 candidates
Signers of the pledge commit to rejecting any donations of more than $200 from fossil fuel interests and commit to co-sponsoring 10 pieces of Green New Deal-related legislation within six months of taking office. These include the original Green New Deal resolution, the Green New Deal for Cities, the Civilian Climate Corps for Jobs and Justice Act, and the Keep it in the Ground Act, which would ban new fossil fuel projects on federal lands and waters.
