SUMMARY:Jewish Earth Alliance 2026 Pre-Tisha B’av Virtual Lobby Day
DESCRIPTION:Although we still mourn the destruction of the Temple on Tisha B’av\, we know that this tragic day was the beginning of a transformation that enabled our people to survive and thrive. From the ashes of the Temple\, Jews built a new center of Judaism in Yavneh. Their innovations became the rabbinic Judaism that we practice today. \nThings may look bleak now—but when have we ever backed down from “doing the work”? And while there are many challenges\, there are also genuine opportunities\, including: \n\nThis session of Congress isn’t over. The Farm Bill just passed the House and will now be debated in the Senate.\nCongress is under pressure to lower gas and electricity prices. Today\, the best way to affordability is cheap\, clean energy from sun and wind.\nThe Administration just released a long-awaited report on FEMA. Now the pressure is on Congress to act to protect communities suffering from climate-fueled disasters.\nWe can win\, and in important ways\, we already are! The vast majority of new electricity generation is from renewables\, and sales of electric cars are growing.\n\nTisha B’av is not only a day of mourning for what has been lost. It is also a day when we recall how our ancestors picked up the pieces and built for the future. Let’s honor this legacy by advocating for the country and the world we want: A world with healthy air and water\, safe homes and communities\, and a thriving web of life to support us and our neighbors around the world. \nPlease join JCAN-MA and other activists in Massachusetts to lobby Senators Markey and Warren on July 21. They’re leaders on science-based climate and energy policy\, but they still need to hear from us about how important it is that they continue to fight for us and our ecosystems. \nPlease register here! Also\, please let us know if you know anyone in Alabama\, Arizona\, Delaware\, Idaho\, Kansas\, Kentucky\, Louisiana\, Minnesota\, or West Virginia who would like to get involved. \nExact times to be determined; each call will last no more than 30 minutes. \nPlease send questions and comments to deborahnamkrane@proton.me
