Hurricane Idalia slams Florida’s Gulf Coast, Georgia, moves into Carolinas – CBS News Record-breaking heat wave peaking in Eastern U.S. with highs near 100 – Washington Post This summer was a global record breaker for the highest heat ever measured, meteorologists say – Associated Press Friend, as extreme heat, flooding, and other effects of the climate crisis impact millions of people across the country, MAGA Republicans are pushing to slash EPA funding to its lowest levels in more than 30 years, gut clean air protections, mandate dirty energy lease sales, cut environmental clean-up programs, and more. Congress is under enormous pressure to reach a spending deal before September 30 to avoid a government shutdown — which means that anything could be on the table. What happens next will depend on the environmental movement. To protect the EPA and climate action, we need phones to be ringing off the hook and emails pouring into congressional offices from constituents. We need to rally support for protecting our environment in Washington D.C. and in states and districts across the country. We need to ensure that people’s — not polluters’ — voices are heard loud and clear. LCV is mounting a major effort to avoid a MAGA Republican-forced government shutdown. But resources are running low, and right now, we can’t afford to do it all — not without you. The best thing you can do right now is this: Renew your membership to power our campaigns to defend climate funding. Right now, all it takes is $5. Every gift will be triple matched, meaning your gift will instantly have 3X the impact. I want you to know that if the environmental movement shows up in a big way in the next few weeks, we CAN win. This May, when extreme House Republicans tried to eviscerate climate programs and clean energy investments as a part of the debt-default crisis negotiations, they came up short — thanks in large part to our members who ensured that LCV had the resources to fight back. Now, MAGA Republicans are back at it — and we need your help to stop them once again. So please, take a moment to review your status:
I’m hoping we can count you in, Friend. Please don’t wait — give now when your support goes 3X as far. Renew your membership today. Even $5 can have a huge impact >> Onward, Gene Karpinski President League of Conservation Voters |
