Clean Air Rally for Our Kids' Future
You’ve heard the news. Gov. Chris Christie has single-handedly decided to take New Jersey out of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, a program that fights global warming and cleans up toxic air pollution.
What does this mean for our kids’ future? It means power plants will be off the hook for polluting our air and triggering more asthma attacks, a serious health problem for more than 165,000 kids in our state.
Join me, my kids Nicolas and Olivia, and other concerned parents and citizens as we rally for clean air and a safer future for our children. Our kids deserve better than this.

We’ll be calling on three of your local representatives in Trenton to block the governor and fight for stronger clean energy policies.
Senator Kean Jr., Assemblywoman Munoz and Assemblyman Bramnick, who represent District 21, are all critical votes on this issue and their decision will affect us all.
The RGGI program caps power plant pollution, requires polluters to pay for fouling our air, and invests that money in clean energy.
So please join us in calling on these three key legislators to support this program.
We hope to see you there.
Sincerely,
Dena Mottola Jaborska
