New support from the world of culture for Kamala Harris. After Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, Leonardo DiCaprio announced this Friday, October 25, his support for the Democratic candidate for the US presidential elections, scheduled for November 5.
Through a video published on his Instagram account, the actor began his statements by talking about hurricanes Helene and Milton that devastated the United States in recent weeks. “These unnatural disasters were caused by climate change,” the actor said.
“Join me and vote for Kamala Harris”
Next, the multi-Oscar-winning artist attacked Donald Trump, stating that the Republican candidate “continues to deny the facts” and “continues to deny the science.”
“He withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement and eliminated essential environmental protection measures,” Leonardo DiCaprio recalled. Sensitive to climatic causes.
“He has now promised the oil and gas industry that he will get rid of any regulation they want in exchange for a billion dollar donation,” the actor continued, before throwing his support behind Kamala Harris. “Climate change is killing the Earth and ruining our economy. We must take a bold step to save our economy, our planet and ourselves. That is why I will vote for Kamala Harris,” he said.
For Leonardo DiCaprio, the Democratic candidate for the White House “contributed to leading the most important climate action in American history, in particular through the adoption of the Inflation Reduction Act.” “Join me and vote for Kamala Harris on November 5, because we can’t afford to go back,” he said.
In 2020, Leonardo DiCaprio did not provide that direct support to Joe Biden but the actor attended a fundraiser to support his campaign. With about 10 days until the election, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are neck and neck in the polls.
