Mr President-Elect: What’s Your Plan to Invest In Us?

We’re Ready for Green Jobs Now!

A message to the next president from the Green For All team and over 50,000 Americans:

Both candidates have talked about the need for new investments in clean energy. Although I obviously find one candidate more credible than the other, either way, on November 5th, we’ll be ready for action, not words. We’re ready for a plan that invests in Main Street, not Wall Street, a plan that sparks a new clean energy economy powerful enough to pull our nation out of recession and pull millions of Americans out of poverty.

So, what’s the plan?
