The Green New Deal is a congressional resolution to mobilize every aspect of American society to 100% clean and renewable energy, guarantee living-wage jobs for anyone who needs one, and a just transition for both workers and frontline communities—all in the next 10 years.

Recent Wins

We’re Sending Ed Markey to Congress
Let this be the last time the establishment doubts the power of our movement. Ed Markey beat a 100-year Kennedy dynasty by running for a Green New Deal. Markey puts the deal on the table, but the people make it impossible to refuse. We will protest and strike outside the halls of Congress with our ally Ed Markey on the inside, negotiating the Green New Deal.

Biden Agrees to 100% Clean Energy by 2035
Sunrise Movement helped redesign Biden’s climate plan to meet the crisis with ambition, ensure Indigenous sovereignty, and bring climate justice to Black and Brown families in polluted and exploited communities. Help us keep the pressure on Biden to ban fossil fuel affiliated personnel from his administration.

Ilhan Omar Wins Congressional Seat
