EDF Action Launches Campaign Praising Rep. Sean Casten for his Clean Energy Leadership

(WASHINGTON, D.C- November 12, 2019) Today, EDF Action launched a mail and digital advertising campaign thanking Congressman Sean Casten (IL-06) for his leadership tackling climate change and prioritizing clean energy. This campaign includes targeted digital buys and mail for Illinois’ 6^th Congressional district highlighting his record standing up for Illinois families and protecting the environment.

“EDF Action is excited to see Congressman Sean Casten leading by example – doing what’s right for his Illinois district – creating jobs, growing the economy and combating climate change,” said EDF Action President Joe Bonfiglio. “Congressman Sean Casten is working across the aisle to fight for Illinois families and showing true leadership on environmental issues, including boosting clean energy and tackling the climate crisis head on.”

Congressman Sean Casten’s record speaks for itself. He introduced bills that would increase America’s energy storage capabilities as well as reduce industrial greenhouse gas emissions. He is also the Co-Chair of the New Democrat Coalition Climate Change Task Force and has been an outspoken advocate about the need to tackle the climate crisis head on.

This is part of a larger bipartisan advertising campaign thanking Reps. Harley Rouda, Cindy Axne, Sean Casten, Francis Rooney, Brian Fitzpatrick, Joe Cunningham and A. Donald McEachin for their environmental leadership. The total campaign spend across all seven districts is $600,000.
