37] – Progressive Change Campaign Committee (Bold Progressives) [info@BoldProgressives.org] wants you to get involved on Wed., April 6 at 3:30 PM ET with Senator Elizabeth Warren and the Oscar-nominated writers of Don’t Look Up on Zoom. It's time to increase the volume around a smart message that all Democrats should use in 2022. This event comes as oil prices, inflation, Russia, and economic policies before Congress are central in the news -- and all of these will be addressed in this event. Don’t Look Up received four Oscar nominations including Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay by McKay and Sirota. This event is part of a joint campaign launched recently by the PCCC and nearly 100 organizations calling on Democratic leaders to advance this clear, popular, on-offense message: "Russia's invasion of Ukraine reaffirms that America must lead the world in a clean energy transition. Our dependence on fossil fuel empowers authoritarians like Vladimir Putin, rogue oil-producing nations, and price-gouging oil companies. For the sake of our national security and planet, we call on America's leaders to take immediate action to invest in domestic clean energy jobs and end our dependence on fossil fuel." PAC (www.BoldProgressives.org) and not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee. Contributions to the PCCC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.
