We are less than ONE WEEK away from the State Senate election! Check out this video to learn more about why Sunrise Madison supports Nada Elmikashfi, and be sure to VOTE NADA on Aug. 11!

We are glad to see that No Fossil Fuel Money has confirmed that “Nada Elmikashfi's ad & Sunrise Madison's op-ed both correctly characterized the contributions in question as pledge violations. Roys' campaign's subsequent statement to the Daily Cardinal was inaccurate & mischaracterized our statement from Collin Rees.”

We checked our facts & we only wish that The Daily Cardinal had as well before silencing activist voices at the behest of Kelda's campaign. We hope our piece will be back up soon, but you can read here in the meantime:

We cannot achieve a just Green New Deal until we break free from the influence of lobbyists and corporate executives.

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS‼️

Despite signing Sunrise Movement’s "No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge," Kelda Roys, candidate for Wisconsin State Senate District 26, accepted money from a fossil fuel lobbyist.

Know who you’re voting for.

Our full statement:

Putting people over profits means standing up to corporate lobbyists who erode our democracy for financial gain. It means dismantling the entire system of political lobbying as we know it, not willfully taking its money.

Sunrise Madison endorses Nada Elmikashfi for the 26th State Senate District
☀️
In our fight for climate justice, Sunrise Madison grounds ourselves in the idea we can achieve a better future--one where the health, livelihood, and dignity of all people are valued, where communities support one another, and where every person has access to an environment where they can thrive. Sunrise Madison is thrilled to endorse Nada Elmikashfi as she works to bring this future to fruition as State Senator for the 26th district. Nada is running for State Senate to create truly transformative change and bring voices and experiences into our Capitol that have not been represented there before. A champion for the working people of Wisconsin, Nada distinguishes herself in this race in the ways in which she integrates a bold, intersectional vision of economic, racial, and climate justice throughout her platform. Nada will fight for all of us, and Sunrise Madison is honored to join her. @ Madison, Wisconsin
