“I spoke with Lee Zeldin and he thinks he’s going to be cutting 65 or so percent of the people from [the EPA].” |
|
|
“What I shared with the president over the weekend — and I actually think it’s a low number — I think that the EPA can save even more than 65 percent of our budget.” |
|
|
— EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin |
|
|
This is a serious emergency. If EPA Administrator Zeldin gets the cuts he’s pushing for, we will see an immediate direct impact — more pollution coupled with no enforcement of environmental standards. Polluters will run wild, threatening the health and wellbeing of communities nationwide. |
|
|
As Congress debates a government funding deal, we only have a short window of time to stop them from effectively shuttering the EPA. |

A group of donors has just agreed to TRIPLE MATCH all contributions to LCV right now. We’re fighting Trump’s dirty agenda every day, and we rely on support from LCV supporters like you to make our work possible. |
|
|
Friend, the Trump administration’s agenda is clear: Gut environmental agencies and give their Big Polluter donors free rein. Halt programs that protect our health and safety from toxic pollution. Ban clean, affordable renewable energy and instead give handouts to oil and gas execs and billionaires. |
|
|
It’s up to us to stop them. |
|
|
We’ve done it before, Friend. In Trump’s first term, we blocked pipelines. We saved public lands. We advanced clean energy — and we did it with the help of supporters like YOU. |
|
|
Each and every day, LCV’s experts and supporters like you go toe-to-toe with Big Oil’s army of lobbyists who will stop at nothing to get their way. But our movement doesn’t rely on corporate profits. We don’t accept government grants. We rely on you, Friend. |
|
|
Thanks for standing with us. Our work to protect our environment depends on you. |
