"description": "Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is championing a plan to build a nuclear energy plant on the moon by 2030. He claims it is about creating American dominance in space. But here on Earth, the climate crisis is worsening, greenhouse gas emissions are climbing, and our public transit systems are crumbling from neglect. Every dollar spent on a lunar nuclear plant is a dollar taken away from the fight to protect our planet. Investments in clean, reliable public transit can slash greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and create good-paying jobs in communities across the country. Electrifying buses, expanding commuter rail, and modernizing transit systems are proven solutions that deliver real results now. Duffy’s moon project will not power a single home on Earth for at least a decade. It will not take one diesel bus off the road or prevent a single ton of carbon from entering our atmosphere. It is a space vanity project that diverts funding and focus from the urgent work of fighting climate change and safeguarding the future of our communities. This is a reckless misuse of public money and a dangerous distraction from what truly matters. Click ‘START WRITING’ to sign and send a direct message calling on Secretary Duffy to abandon his nuclear plant on the Moon and put Earth first. Demand he focus on fighting climate change here at home, not a fantasy project on the Moon now.",
