The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 created the largest climate and clean energy investment that the U.S. has ever made. This historic legislation has provided people of faith and conscience with an opportunity to live our values of caring for one another and for our Sacred Earth.

IRA created funding for energy and climate resiliency improvements that can be used in houses of worship and our homes. It also made it easier for nonprofits and houses of worship to access clean energy funds and tax credits through a program called “direct pay.”

Let President Biden and your members of Congress know that you appreciate their work in making the Inflation Reduction Act law, and urge them to support additional strong solutions for pollution from the Biden administration that are needed to meet the President’s commitment to cut climate pollution in half by 2030.

It is the moral responsibility of our nation and our sacred task as people of faith to address the climate crisis. Sign the petition.

Dear President Biden,

Thank you for making the single biggest investments in climate, communities, clean energy and jobs ever and signing the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law.

These historic investments will help slash climate pollution in the U.S. by an estimated 40 percent by the end of the decade. What's more, the bill provides critical support to improve our families’ health, cleans up legacy pollution -- and could help save families and households like mine $1,025 in annual energy costs. This is a big deal for all of us!

I appreciate your work here. Now, we need Congress to continue to act on climate and the Biden administration to implement strong solutions for pollution across federal agencies that will help get us the rest of the way to our nation’s commitment to cut climate pollution in half by 2030. Our climate can’t wait, but this law will go a long way towards addressing the climate crisis. Thank you!

Sincerely,
