Meet Our Climate Champions

Susanna Gibson (Dist. 57)
“As a Nurse Practitioner, every day I see the impacts of climate change on our community. I understand firsthand that we must protect our environment to ensure healthy and prosperous communities. I am proud to stand with CCAN and partner with them on this important mission.” — Susanna Gibson

Phil Hernandez  (Dist. 94)
“I am the Democratic Nominee running for the Virginia House of Delegates in the 94th District. I was born and raised in Hampton Roads by a single mom, attended public schools, and was the first in my family to graduate from college. As a father to two young girls, I am invested in making Norfolk a better place to raise a family. I have experience as a nonprofit leader, worked in the Obama administration, and have spent my career fighting for public education, promoting clean energy, and economic opportunity for all.” — Phil Hernandez 

Michael Feggans  (Dist. 97)
“I will protect our environment and support, renewable energy jobs to support and combat, reoccurring, flooding, and sea level rise and promote resilience in coastal Virginia. In addition, as a veteran, I know firsthand the importance of advocating for a high tech transitional skills training for my fellow veterans to pursue quality jobs in the community, especially those in clean energy.” — Michael Feggans
