Charlestown, MA Rhiana Gunn-Wright, one of the architects of the Green New Deal, today announced that she is endorsing Elizabeth Warrens campaign for President of the United States.

As one of the key architects of the Green New Deal, Rhiana knows intimately what it will take to defeat the climate crisis,said Elizabeth Warren.She knows how critical it is that we elect a president who recognizes the urgent need for a Green New Deal and who will lead our country toward a clean energy future, while creating millions of good, new jobs and putting environmental justice at the center of our approach. Im grateful to have her support and to stand with her in this fight for big, structural change.

In avideoreleased today, Gunn-Wright stated,The worst part about the climate crisis is that its by design. We know that the odds are stacked in favor of folks who have money. The folks who feel climate change most keenly are by and large low-income people of color. Elizabeth Warren understands that and understands that that is part of the problem that we have to tackle.

She continued:There is no dealing with climate change unless we deal with corruption. Every time I read a Warren climate plan, I am confident that it can take us to a Green New Deal because I see her thinking about: How do we use all of the levers of government?
