Coalition Building on Climate Change Policy

Franciscan Action Network is working in coalition with several other organizations, such as the Catholic Coalition on Climate Change and the National Council of Churches in Christ, to work on improving climate legislation in the U.S Senate. 

FAN is dialoging with the offices of 11 Senators to set up meetings of thanks for their progressive steps towards ecological protection; the meetings will also push for more money for international adaptation. The FAN Action Center Staff has identified team Captains in those 11 States and has initiated a letter campaign that the representative group can bring to the Senator and their staff. We are presently reaching out to the following key Senators:A delegation from MD organized by FAN meets with a representative from Senator Ben Cardin's office.
