Think Green, Vote Blue: Working Together To Elect Environmental Democrats

Описание: Floridians are united around environmental issues, and want candidates who will fight against the overdevelopment, environmental destruction, toxic waste, flooding, and more. Our governor and many elected officials have failed on the environment over and over: building a detention center in the Everglades, trying to develop the state parks, failing to address flooding and toxins, allowing energy rates to skyrocket, and stripping local governments of their ability to protect rural and conservation lands. Floridians have taken notice and want change. The time is NOW to elect environmental candidates!

In this webinar, filmed on February 1st 2026, you'll hear:

-An introduction to the Democratic Environmental Caucus

-A welcome and statements from Nikki Fried, Florida Democratic Party Chair, and Michelle Deatrick, Chair of the DNC Environmental and Climate Crisis Council.

-The DECF strategy for the 2026 campaign and how we will work together, statewide, to elect strong environmental candidates.

-How you can help!

Join us to elect environmental Democrats in 2026!
