What Climate Cabinet Action does

Climate Cabinet Action is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit political organization founded in 2018 that helps pro-climate candidates run, win, and legislate in state and local offices across the United States. It operates alongside an affiliated federal Hybrid PAC (Climate Cabinet PAC) registered with the FEC, and supports its work through donations processed primarily via ActBlue at suggested tiers of $25, $100, $250, and $1,000, with larger gifts handled through direct outreach. The organization employs approximately 20 people, distributed across the country with local hires in multiple states including Illinois and Texas, and is led by Executive Director Caroline Spears and COO Emma Fisher.

The core product is a data-driven "Moneyball" targeting platform that maps climate impact against political opportunity across 500,000+ elected offices nationwide to identify undervalued races and climate champion lawmakers. This is delivered through three service pillars: Mapping Power (analytics), Win Elections (candidate support and endorsements, with a 62% win rate in top priority races and 500+ campaigns supported since 2020), and Pass Policy (on-call policy expertise for elected officials). A Candidate Endorsement Platform provides a filterable directory for supporters to discover and fund endorsed candidates. The technology stack combines data science with on-the-ground intel from state-level staff, supported by a dedicated Data Engineer, and is positioned as a "predictive analytics" capability rather than a frontier AI product.

Revenue mechanics mix individual donor contributions via ActBlue, larger direct gifts via a [email protected] channel, and unlimited corporate/labor contributions routed into the PAC's Non-Contribution accounts. The primary customer segments are climate-focused individual donors seeking to maximize impact and pro-climate candidates seeking data-driven targeting, campaign support, and post-election policy expertise. Featured supported candidates include Lindsey Prather (NC HD-115), Brian Wrightson (PA SD-40), Joe Sheehan (WI AD-26), and Mark Gudgel (Omaha Public Power District Subdivision 2), spanning state legislatures, assembly, senate, and utility district offices.
