Hey Jess, grateful for all you do. Day-to-Day. Literally!

I was just on the Lunch & Learn with Newton Action Alliance (thanks to you, I learned about the organization and remain awed by their work!) and seems Chairman Durbin's voicemail is full again. So as an alternative, folks can email him at: https://www.durbin.senate.gov/contact/email

They can make the same request / demand of him to bring the Assault Weapons Ban to a committee vote, as you so aptly guide above.

More and many thanks for this and all.

Hi Jessica

I was just watching Brian Tyler Cohen's newest "Short" on his Youtube page and thought you should know about it for your newsletter. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pwCVHGVyA-Q

He stated the Public Comment period is now open on a new rule Biden is proposing to make power plants cut their emissions up to 90%, which would really help with climate change. He, no make that the planet, needs us to all write comments to help offset the mammoth amount of pressure the fossil fuel industry will put on the EPA to not accept this new rule. Here is the link to make your comments -

Click on the "Comments" box to make your comment. And note, it appears July 24th is the last day to make a public comment.

You can also make your comment at - https://act.evergreenaction.com/letter/EPA-clean-up-climate-pollution_at_advocacy/?utm_source=___atAd_BTC&source=___atAd_BTC

However that is a long form letter you sign onto. And Jessica always tells us to change our comments a bit so it doesn't look like just another form letter. Thus my giving the link to the actual comment page at EPA.
