| Diane -- Earlier today, President Obama rejected the Keystone XL pipeline -- another in a growing list of strong moves to fight climate change. Climate change deniers and their polluter allies have fought him every step of the way, and they've already said they'll fight as hard as they can on this too. Will you stand with the President and fight for actions like this to take on climate change? The Keystone XL pipeline was a risky plan to transport oil from the Canadian Tar Sands to refineries on the Gulf Coast. Not only would it have made climate change worse, it would have added to the risk of dangerous spills in our heartland. The risk just isn't worth the reward -- because most of the oil would be exported to the world market, it wouldn't have put much of a dent in gas prices or made us more energy independent. And big claims about job creation just never added up. As the President said this morning, the time to act on climate change is now. Not later, not someday, but right here right now -- and we can do it while creating jobs, saving money, and growing our economy. We can reduce energy prices and create jobs by supporting the switch to clean energy. Wind and solar power have tripled in the last few years, costs are falling fast, and these booming industries provide hundreds of thousands of Americans with good paychecks. Real infrastructure investments from Congress wouldn't hurt, either. President Obama has been fighting hard to stop climate change. Despite constant opposition from climate change deniers and their powerful polluter allies, we've made a lot of progress -- through investments in clean energy, a groundbreaking plan to cut carbon pollution from power plants, and through international agreements with big developing countries like China and India. There's still a long way to go in this fight. But we can win it -- if everyone who believes in a cleaner, safer future stands up for what they believe. Stand with President Obama and add your name to join the fight against climate change: http://my.barackobama.com/Keystone Thanks, Jack Jack Shapiro Director of Policy and Campaigns Organizing for Action | |

The end of congressional crises?
![]() | |
| Diane -- Late last week, Congress passed a two-year bipartisan budget agreement that will add jobs and boost our economy -- and yesterday, the President signed it. This is a big step forward. Nobody got everything they wanted, but this agreement meets some important objectives outlined by President Obama -- like relief from arbitrary and harmful sequester cuts, and support to programs that help middle-class families and our military. But this isn't a completely done deal yet. A vocal minority in Congress could still derail it by pushing extreme parts of their agenda through additional riders to the spending bill. We can't let that happen -- add your name in support of a bipartisan budget agreement. Some congressional leaders have made a pastime of governing from crisis to crisis in the name of their extreme views. But despite the messes they've made, our economy has been making steady progress for the past six years. We can't afford any more self-inflicted economic wounds. This deal keeps us from defaulting on our obligations and puts us on a steady path. Now we just need to make sure Congress follows through and avoids a shutdown. Add your name, and we'll be in touch with more soon. https://my.barackobama.com/Support-The-Bipartisan-Budget Thanks, Jack Jack Shapiro Director of Policy and Campaigns Organizing for Action | |

Make sure you're covered
| Diane -- Since the Affordable Care Act has taken effect, more than 17.5 million Americans have gotten covered. That's a lot of people resting easier at night, knowing they no longer have to worry about how they'll pay for a doctor visit, or whether a sudden illness could leave them deeply in debt. I think every American deserves to have that peace of mind. Starting now, people who need coverage for 2016 once again have the chance to get quality, affordable health insurance through the marketplace. If you still don't have health insurance for next year, financial assistance may be available. Check out your coverage options and get the information you need to enroll. Even if you already have health insurance through the marketplace, you should still review your coverage options. You might find a plan that works better for you. And if you know someone else who needs to get covered, forward this email to them and let them know the marketplace is open again -- but not for long. Thanks -- more to come soon, Barack Obama | |

Tune in to the First in the South Presidential Candidates Forum
| Diane -- On Friday, Hillary Clinton, Martin O'Malley, and Bernie Sanders will be in South Carolina for MSNBC's First in the South Presidential Candidates Forum, moderated by Rachel Maddow. This is the first time all three of our party's presidential candidates will be in South Carolina together, and it's a chance for them to speak directly to voters all across the South about the issues that matter to us. I know we'll hear some inspiring ideas and visions for building a stronger middle class and giving working families a leg up. I can't wait to hear from the next President of the United States, Diane. Let us know you'll be watching, and we'll send you a reminder when it's time to tune in: http://my.democrats.org/First-in-the-South-Forum Thanks, Gilda Rep.
