Climate Power Statement on Kamala Harris’ Acceptance of the Democratic Nomination

Washington, D.C.  — This week at the Democratic National Convention, the stakes of the election were on full display – and they couldn’t be higher. 

Americans across the country are energized and excited to elect Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States. In response to Harris accepting the Democratic nomination, Climate Power Executive Director Lori Lodes released the following statement: 

“Kamala Harris has inspired Americans across the country. Her acceptance of the Democratic nomination tonight reminds us that a brighter future is possible. She is fighting for a future where our children breathe clean air and drink clean water; a future where we rely on clean, renewable energy made right here in America; and a future where the middle class has a chance to get ahead. 

“Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will lead our country forward toward a brighter future. Donald Trump, JD Vance, and their dangerous Project 2025 agenda will weaken the middle class, pollute our planet, and give Big Oil billionaires massive tax breaks. The choice in November is clear – and we’re not going back.”
