The Most Important Thing You Can Do for the Planet is Get Out the Vote!

Given the enormous stakes of the November election at all levels of government, the Lexington Climate Action Network stresses that it is crucial to elect candidates who prioritize the environment. This election hinges on voter turnout. Now more than ever, it is essential to support grassroots groups working in battleground states to mobilize every voter.  Join the Lexington Climate Action Network to learn how to assist non-partisan “Get Out the Vote” programs with established track records.

Date: Tuesday, July 9

Time: 7:00 pm
