Justin Ford | Citizens' Climate Lobby | August 2016 Monthly Speaker

Our guests for the August 2016 monthly call were Justin Ford and Rikkia Ramsey from the Truman National Security Project.

Justin Ford is the Organizing Director of the Truman National Security Project. His responsibilities include building and maintaining a national leadership structure, overseeing advocacy and organizing tactics, and leading a comprehensive training and professional development program for Truman members and allies. Justin also serves in the Army as an airborne combat engineer.

Rikkia Ramsey is the Policy Program Coordinator for the Truman Center. Before joining the Truman Center, Rikkia was Military Legislative Correspondent for U.S. Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC), addressing constituent concerns regarding defense and foreign policy issues. She’ll talk about the Truman Center’s Operation Free, a coalition of veterans and national security experts that advocate for securing America with clean energy. It recognizes that climate change and our dependence on oil, are national security threats and fights on a local, state and federal level for strong clean energy policies.
