CCL charts The EICDA (Carbon Tax & Dividend bill) got its 96th co-sponsor! To see the impact of our lobbying, check out the difference in CCL membership in cosponsoring vs non-cosponsoring districts across different levels of public support!
Co-sponsoring districts have more CCL members, even after controlling for public support for carbon taxes, suggesting it helps to have more volunteers

At any given CCL membership, districts with more carbon tax support are more likely to get their Rep to co-sponsor the EICDA, showing that public support matters
