Thank you for being part of a powerful Agenda Summit on Sunday! We were thrilled to have 250 people attend, including 18 local elected officials. It was the largest event ISAIAH has convened in Rochester. Check out the coverage of the event:
Our draft agenda that was presented on Sunday is attached to this email.
At Sunday's event, we talked about how this agenda is merely words on a page unless we decide to act. Here's how we ask you to take action next:
- (Instant action) Click here to email your City Councilor asking them to support increased funding for climate & sustainability, to ensure Rochester takes full advantage of the billion-dollar Inflation Reduction Act. Councilors have discussed this but have not yet made a commitment--they need to hear that this is important to you!
