Hello Friends of NAVA Education Project and Community Members,
Friends, please join us in kicking off Earth Month with the Nuevo México Prospera Rally!
Join Nuevo México Prospera (a coalition of environmental, justice and community groups), representatives of New Mexico’s federal delegation, state officials, community members, activists, and allies for a virtual rally in support of the THRIVE Act on March 31, 2021 at 6:30pm. RSVP here.
In addition to workers and community members invited speakers include:
Congresswoman Teresa Leger Fernandez
Senator Martin Heinrich
Senator Ben Ray Lujan
State Representative Angelica Rubio
We must prioritize a just transition for workers in extractive industries and investments in the poor and working-class communities, especially communities of color, which have historically suffered most from the worst environmental effects from fossil fuel extraction and processing.
THRIVE is a blueprint for the future that tackles the multiple crises we face in NM - economic inequality, racism and climate change - with a plan to create thousands of jobs in our state and 15 million dignified jobs nationwide for millions of workers and support a better life for the millions more who remain vulnerable in this pivotal moment.
El evento se transmitirá en vivo simultáneamente en inglés en la página de @NMWFP y en español en @OLENewMexico
