DEVELOPING… On Monday, the Trump administration announced a freeze on payment of all federal grants. This will harm all aspects of life — from environmental safety, to education, to small business loans — payments could be completely halted.

A judge blocked the order yesterday, but that is only temporary. This move is still a direct threat to clean air, drinking water, and safeguards for the health and safety of virtually every community in the country.

The environmental movement is counting on your support to fight back against them with everything we have.

We need you, Friend. LCV’s Membership Drive ends on Friday, and we haven’t heard from you yet. Please, don’t miss this opportunity to fight back against Trump’s dirty agenda. Until Friday at midnight, a group of donors will TRIPLE MATCH all membership gifts.

Friend, we’re here to tell you that we still have the power to organize, advocate, and fight back.

This dangerously broad overreach — directed by Project 2025 — is an extreme power grab. It will instill chaos and cause very real harm to people in every state.

But as it stands, many of Trump's actions are on weak legal footing. He has lost again and again in the courts — his worst abuses this year are already facing serious legal challenges. In his first term, we stopped him from opening up protected lands and waters for drilling. And we were able to stop some of the most egregious nominees and actions from moving forward because of swift and loud public outcry.

Here’s the thing — Trump’s plans are also deeply unpopular with the public. Whether it's cutting federal investments and tax credits for clean vehicle manufacturing, canceling wind energy permits, or ignoring climate science and putting our communities at heightened risk for extreme weather events, Trump’s agenda is designed to pad Big Oil executives’ pockets while raising costs and risking the health and safety of ordinary people.

Trump has already shown that he’ll back down from a fight, but we need YOUR help to put enough pressure on him and on Congress to make that happen.
|
|
|
We hope you’ll join us in the fight for people and our planet, Friend.
