Tell Congress: Defend Our Climate from Polluter-pushed Rollbacks

Backed by Big Oil and other corporate polluters, lawmakers are preparing to use the Congressional Review Act (CRA) and policy riders in government funding bills to attempt to overturn critical environmental safeguards that protect our health and climate from harmful pollution.

Unlike other pieces of legislation, CRA votes can pass through Congress with a simple majority vote in both chambers, which means that there’s a real threat that these rollbacks could become law. And government funding runs out at the end of September, so members are under pressure to approve a bill. We’re calling on LCV members like you to tell Congress to vote NO on corporate polluters’ dirty agenda. 

We’re aiming to deliver 5,000 petition signatures today — add your name right now >>

Friend — in the past year, the Biden-Harris administration has rolled out a series of important executive actions to clean up our air and water, reduce climate pollution, and protect public lands from drilling, mining, and other destructive industries.

These actions will make a critical difference in the fight against climate change — but there’s a narrow window of time when members of Congress can try to block the Biden-Harris administration’s climate and environmental protections through the Congressional Review Act (CRA) or when government funding runs out at the end of September. 

The CRA allows Congress to overturn administrative actions like these with a simple majority vote in both the House and Senate, and with narrow margins in both chambers, just a few members of Congress will determine whether this effort succeeds or fails. That means the outcome could come down to grassroots pressure from people like you.

Join thousands of LCV members who are writing to Congress today and urging their representatives to vote NO on corporate polluters’ dirty agenda. It only takes a moment to add your name and make your voice heard >>

We have to act quickly: MAGA Republicans are pressing for a vote to overturn the Biden-Harris administration’s actions to reduce toxic emissions and combat climate change.

Pro-polluter lawmakers are targeting limits on vehicle emissions and clean water protections. We need a massive show of force from environmentalists like you to avoid even more attacks on fundamental protections for our health and environment.

Take action right now: tell your members of Congress to vote NO on any Congressional Review Act resolution or policy rider that rolls back the progress we’ve made to protect our communities from pollution and climate change >>

Thank you for taking action, Friend. We’ll be in touch soon with more updates on our campaigns to protect people and our planet.

Onward,
