Hello everyone,
A copy of the email sent to all EICDA, CF&D, Carbon Pricing, and Climate Action endorsers asking them to contact their Senators has been pasted below. Please note there were some slight differences depending on what type of endorsement they gave and if they were an individual or organizational endorser.

Dear Endorser,
Thank you for endorsing the Energy Innovation Act, Carbon Fee and Dividend, or Climate Action!
I’m writing to ask you to personally call or write ‎the U.S. Senators of ‎your state‎ this week. Congress is crafting climate legislation right now and needs to hear support for bold action from people like you. Businesses and organizations like ‎yours that create jobs and economic activity in ‎your state are persuasive. As a community leader, your voice has the potential to move Congress to action. When you call or write your Senator:
Identify yourself as a community leader. If your organization generates economic activity or creates jobs in the district/state, please say so.
Tell your Senators that you want a price on carbon:
Democratic Senators - I’m a community leader and a constituents and I'm calling/writing to urge you to include carbon pricing in the reconciliation package - go big and bold on climate to reduce emissions.
Republican Senators - I’m a community leader and a constituents and I’m calling/writing to urge you to enact a federal carbon price so U.S. businesses can avoid paying Europe’s border tariff and remain internationally competitive.
You can call any Senator’s office by calling Congress’s switchboard at (202) 224-3121. You can also find a contact form and direct phone numbers on Senators’ websites at senate.gov. Or, if you prefer, go to cclusa.org/senate to learn more and to use our online writing and calling tools. However you do it, please identify yourself as a community leader in the message.
To increase your impact, ask your colleagues to personally contact their Senators this week or forward this email to them.
You can reply or email us at the addresses below if you have questions. Thank you for putting your endorsement into action at this critical time.
