Why labor unions support Mike Siegel Sunrise Movement 2020-10-13 | What use is a good job if you don't have a home to come home to? What use is a country if you can't work to better the lives of yourself and your neighbors? Unions have a saying, if you’re not at the table you’re on the menu. That’s why an unprecedented coalition of unions are backing Green New Deal champion, Mike Siegel because any deal he’ll make in congress, starts with workers. Mike Siegel is a democrat running for congress in Texas’s 10th district, to unseat the incumbent republican, Michael Mccaul. Mike also supports Housing and Healthcare for All, Police Reform, and Gun reform. You can learn more about his platform at siegelfortexas.org. To get plugged in on how you can help elect a Green New Deal Champion in Texas, join our mass call, happening at 7:00 pm CST, on Oct 13th. Register at: smvmt.org/siegelparty

LIVE: Lets Talk about Winning the ACC - The American Climate Corps Sunrise Movement 2023-09-22 | President Biden announced he’s formally establishing an American Climate Corps!!! This a major victory for our movement, our generation, and our fight for a Green New Deal. The ACC is a visionary policy inspired by our movement’s call for a CCC (Civilian Climate Corps) that'll put our generation to work in good paying jobs to stop the climate crisis. This didn’t happen overnight. We began the fight for a Climate Corps in 2020 and spent the last 3 years organizing our communities, protesting, building coalitions and pushing our leaders to stand with our generation. Now, after years of demonstrating and fighting for a Climate Corps, we turned a generational rallying cry into a real jobs program that will put a new generation to work stopping the climate crisis. This win is proof that together we can win real policies that will improve people's lives. It proves that Biden knows he can use his executive power to ignite an all-out mobilization of our government and society to stop the climate crisis. If we can win a Climate Corps – we can win a Green New Deal. This is a big victory AND our job isn’t done yet. Our work will only be done when we break the grip of the fossil fuel industry and secure a livable future for all under a Green New Deal.

What is the American Dream? Sunrise Movement 2022-04-28 | We have been promised that if we work hard that one day we all can become wealthy.But for most of us, that day will never come. No matter how hard we work to provide for ourselves and our families, we are still living paycheck to paycheck, we are still in massive debt. This isn't because we did anything wrong, it's because we were never meant to succeed financially. Everyday the wealthy few continue to get richer off of our labor. CEOs continue to do everything in their power to maintain control. Fossil fuel companies designed the American transit system to ensure we couldn't rely on public transit. They built highways and freeways through Black neighborhoods, displacing millions of people and families. They profit off our suffering. One thing CEOs will never have though, is our power. The power of community, the power of Unions and people rising up. We must have the courage to keep fighting for our communities to see another day, and keep fighting to build a world that is designed for us by us.
