There's a very exciting progressive coalition building zoom meeting happening, The National Justice Roundtable.

Joel Segal has been on the forefront of the forefront on climate change, health care and civil rights.

He's a cofounder, and the National Climate Justice Campaign Coordinator for the "Justice Action Mobilization Network;" a nationwide multiracial climate justice network co-chaired by Reverend Lennox Yearwood.

JAMN is lobbying elected officials and educating the public about the need for an expedited transition to renewable energy, millions of green jobs, environmental justice, and millions of solar or green energy affordable apartments in order to end homelessness in America.

Joel was the former senior legislative assistant and speech writer to Rep. John Conyers from 2000-2013, the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee. Joel was the founder of the 2000 universal health care movement, and co-authored HR 676, Rep. Conyer's ACA, the now heralded "Expanded and Improved Medicare For All" bill and he was a cofounder of Progressive Democrats of America PDA.
He was a senior technical consultant for Michael Moore's health care documentary SICKO. Joel cofounded the Global HIV/AIDS Alliance, and was one of the senior Hill staffers who worked on federal legislation pertaining to global HIV/AIDS, voter suppression, ending homelessness, Katrina, and ending poverty.
