Get out the vote in North Carolina

Article Contributed by Friends of the Earth | Published on Sunday, October 11, 2020

Hurricanes have barreled towards almost every coastal state east of the Mississippi this year. A key contributor? Warmer than average water surface temperatures.

These storms are becoming more frequent and more severe in part due to climate change -- which is why we need to kick anti-environment extremists like Thom Tillis out of the Senate. Help get out the vote in North Carolina.

Tillis supported the Atlantic Coast Pipeline in North Carolina. This fracked gas pipeline would have locked the state into another several decades of reliance on climate-destroying fossil fuels. The good news is, Tillis is one of the most vulnerable Republicans in the nation. Flipping his seat is vital. Will you to take action to get him voted out of office?

Thom Tillis is known for his allegiance to the fossil fuel industry. He received over $220,000 from Oil and Gas companies.

For years, Tillis has pushed a climate denier agenda. He’s voted with Trump 95% of the time and has a lifetime environmental score of 9% from the League of Conservation Voters. He even helped confirm David Bernhardt as Secretary of the Interior -- putting North Carolina’s public lands at risk of being handed over to Big Oil and the timber industry.

We need your help to remind voters that Tillis has Big Oil and Gas in his back pocket. He’ll do nothing as North Carolina is pummeled by hurricanes again and again if his polluter buddies’ profits are at stake.
