Each month, Citizens’ Climate Lobby supporters gather locally for a monthly meeting where we educate ourselves by listening to a guest speaker.

July's Monthly Meeting will be held on Saturday, July 13th at 1:00 pm ET and feature CCL's Government Affairs team. This call will be hosted by CCL Senior Director of Communications Flannery Winchester.
Ben Pendergrass, CCL’s Vice President of Government Affairs, will celebrate our national summer conference and our 442 June 11th lobby meetings, give us a legislative and policy roadmap update, and review the impact of your June phone calls about the PROVE IT Act.
