DEVELOPING —
The Washington Post is reporting that, after bringing the country to the brink of default and
still falling short of securing ALL of Big Oil’s demands, House Republicans have now introduced a series of drastic Appropriations bills that would slash climate change provisions and investments from the federal clean energy plan. House Republicans are doubling down on their unreasonable demands — and setting up a government shutdown showdown in October.
In addition, they are moving on a package to zero-out green energy tax incentives —
a move that could completely collapse the wind, solar, and electric vehicle markets.
Republicans tried to attack these same clean energy investments during the recent default negotiations. To stop them, LCV flooded House and Senate offices with messages. We were on the airwaves. We pressured members in their districts and in the Capitol.
We spoke up to protect climate action — and we defended our hard-won progress.
We need to do it again. And for that, we need you. LCV members are what make our work possible.
Please, make a gift today to power our campaign for clean energy and climate action. When you give by June 30, your support will be TRIPLE MATCHED.

With the support of our members, our movement went all out to pass historic clean energy investments in 2022 — and won. Now, we must go all out to defend this progress. These investments in clean energy don’t just make sense for our planet, Friend. They’re also projected to lower energy costs and create millions of jobs nationwide, particularly in Republican-held districts. But politicians in the pockets of Big Oil aren’t holding back — they’re willing to sacrifice their own constituents’ well-being to give the fossil-fuel industry
even more handouts and tax breaks.
Everyone deserves to know when politicians put polluters before people. That’s where LCV comes in. We’re running ads that hold lawmakers accountable for voting to kill clean energy jobs, and they’re already having a big impact. We need to keep it going and make it clear that Americans are tired of the extreme Republican-controlled House doing Big Oil’s bidding.
Time and time again, our grassroots movement has proven that we can go toe-to-toe with corporate polluters and win — but it only works when we all chip in to take them on. That’s why your LCV membership is so important and why you won’t want to miss this opportunity to
triple your impact.
Make a gift to power our campaigns right now, Friend. Our grassroots movement has the power to stop polluter-backed Republicans from stopping the clean energy revolution, but only if everyone chips in.
Thanks for all that you do to protect people and the planet.
Onward,
Gene Karpinski
