Friend — this is truly urgent. MAGA House Republicans are wasting precious time, repeatedly failing to pick a new Speaker of the House.

Without a new Speaker to move a spending bill forward, a government shutdown will occur just weeks from now. This will halt critical services, including nutrition assistance programs for children and salary for military service members.

While Republicans squander time that they could be using to protect their constituents’ health and livelihoods, here’s what all of their candidates for Speaker have in common:

— Each of them signed on to completely gut funding for programs that ensure we have clean air to breathe and clean water to drink.

— Each of them is prioritizing polluter profits over the health and safety of their constituents by pushing a mandate to force dirty drilling on public lands.

— Each of them is trying to block clean energy projects that would reduce climate emissions and create good-paying jobs — even in their own districts.

Bottom line: No matter who they pick, it will be bad for people and the planet. We need to be ramping up pressure NOW.

But here’s the good news: The environmental programs and clean energy plan they’re looking to cut are incredibly popular, even in red states.

We can put pressure on each and every one of these lawmakers to protect these critical programs while keeping the government open — but we need to do it NOW.

LCV teams are on Capitol Hill every day, pushing back against cuts to clean energy progress and funding for environmental protections. But we need to ramp up the pressure in a major way. Here’s why we need your support:

We’re gearing up to run more ads targeting vulnerable Republican lawmakers, holding their feet to the fire and letting them know that if they choose to side with Big Polluters instead of the people in their districts, voters will remember.

The truth is, this work is expensive — and with all the attacks on the environment happening in Congress from extreme MAGA Republicans this year, our resources are running low. What we need most of all is your support.
