When I worked on your campaign team in Chattanooga TN. My main push was for climate change. 90% of my Facebook post was Mike For Climate change. I Believe in You even though after your campaign I've not joined another. I Will however Vote My Democratic Views and a Straight Democrat Ticket in November.
