While the headlines are focused elsewhere, anti-environmental lawmakers in Congress are trying to push forward radical legislation that puts our planet and our health in serious jeopardy.
|

|
Just last week, the House voted 210-205 to force devastating cuts to environmental agencies, block clean energy initiatives, overturn pollution safeguards, mandate fossil fuel leasing on public lands and waters, and prevent the protection of endangered species. Our experts are calling their bill “a polluter’s dream come true.”

And that’s not all, Friend... While this is happening, pro-drilling lawmakers in the Senate are trying to push through massive handouts to fossil fuel executives. Their bill would force the federal government to hand over more of our public lands and waters to coal, oil, and gas companies.

Each year, our Summer Membership Drive determines how big we can go to fight for our planet. We have a lot on the line — please take a moment to review your status:

Members of Congress will spend the rest of their summer in their districts, which means that what happens RIGHT NOW could decide the fate of our environment for years to come.
|
|
|
What happens next will come down to the environmental movement. We’re counting on passionate, grassroots environmentalists like you to power our campaigns. Without your support, we can’t can’t go toe-to-toe with Big Polluters’ army of lobbyists, defeat MAGA Republicans’ anti-environmental agenda, or rally environmental advocates this summer.

I’m so grateful to people like you, Friend. We’ll be in touch soon with more updates on our campaigns for people and our planet.
