Keep up the fight today!
*********************
Dear Friend,
Since President Trump took office, he has wasted no time signing a flurry of anti-environmental executive orders, dismantling federal agencies, and censoring climate data. But Earthjustice is fighting back.
We recently filed two lawsuits against this administration.
Our first lawsuit challenges President Trump’s illegal attempt to sell our oceans to the oil and gas industry. He tried a similar move in 2017. We stopped him then, and we will do it again.
Our second lawsuit challenges the scrubbing of climate data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s websites. Farmers rely on this data to adapt to extreme weather and keep our food supply safe. Our lawsuit seeks to compel the Trump administration to end its climate censorship and restore access to this vital information.
For 50 years and through 14 presidential administrations, we’ve fought to protect the ocean from the oil and gas industry. We’ve fought to make a more climate-safe food system. We’ve fought hard for pollution-free air and water. And regardless of who is in the office, we will keep fighting.
Throughout it all, you, as Earthjustice advocates, have been by our side in defending policies that aim to build lasting environmental protections, and we cannot let this new administration erase the progress we’ve made together. No matter what comes, we won’t cede our ground.
Our fight to protect the environment is more important than ever, and we’ll need you in our corner as we forge ahead. Click here to view all the actions below on one page!

Call on Congress to defend critical government agencies
In just a few short weeks, President Trump has closed critical environmental enforcement offices, frozen federal funding for environmental projects, and laid off thousands of federal workers. Tell Congress to do everything in their power to hold the line and ensure agencies like the EPA have the tools and expertise to continue protecting our health and the environment.

Our coastal communities need protections from the dangers of offshore drilling
On Day 1, President Trump ordered the removal of protections for millions of acres of public waters from future offshore drilling, which harms the quality of life of millions of people. This order was illegal. Only Congress can remove these protections. Tell your member of Congress to keep these permanent ocean protections and to expand them to coastal communities already harmed by fossil fuels.

Keep this toxic pesticide out of our food
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has taken a step forward — but it’s not enough. They proposed a partial food ban on chlorpyrifos, a neurotoxic pesticide linked to learning disabilities and behavioral disorders in children who experienced exposure in utero. But the EPA’s proposal would allow chlorpyrifos to be used on 11 crops, including apples, citrus, and cherries. Tell the EPA to finish the job and ban all remaining uses of chlorpyrifos without delay.

Tell the federal government we need a plan to recover Northwest salmon
Over the last several years, your advocacy has been crucial in the fight to recover imperiled Columbia Basin salmon. A comment period is now open allowing the public to weigh in. Tell the federal government that extinction is not an option.
