As a Citizens’ Climate Lobby volunteer, you have lots of tools for engaging with elected officials who hold power in Congress. But what can you do during the election season, when candidates are campaigning to win that power? 

You can put your CCL skills to work during elections — especially in the media. Your local newspapers, TV stations and radio stations will be following every twist and turn of the races. It’s a fantastic opportunity to elevate the issue of climate change and therefore push candidates of every party toward more robust, committed climate platforms.
