FROM THE FRONTLINES

The biggest environmental rollback in history

Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin has announced plans to begin the process of gutting federal rules to safeguard our health, air, water, and climate. Previously, Earthjustice successfully defended many of these safeguards in court and will do so again. Read more: [link removed]

“I’m worried about what that means for the future of farming.”

Laura Beth Resnick owns and runs Butterbee Farm in White Hall, Maryland. Resnick was approved for a grant through the Inflation Reduction Act that would have reimbursed half the cost of her solar panels, which was later withdrawn. Earthjustice is suing the Trump administration on behalf of Resnick and many others for reneging on those funding promises. Read more: [link removed]

In Conversation: Taking on the Trump administrationes

“We recognize that we’re playing on different terrain in 2025 than we were in 2017. Know that Earthjustice has 220+ active litigators, many more communicators, many more people working both on Capitol Hill and in statehouses, who are going to be working across this whole scope of work.”
– Sam Sankar, Senior Vice President of Programs on Earthjustice’s plans during the first 100 days of the second Trump administration: [link removed]

HOW YOU CAN HELP

The Environmental Protection Agency must prioritize protecting families, communities, and our health

Trump’s EPA is abandoning the agency’s mandate to protect the health of the American people and granting the wish list of fossil fuel industries from coal-fired power plants to oil and gas drillers. We must hold Administrator Zeldin accountable and demand he uphold bedrock environmental protections that will safeguard our clean air and clean water and protect our communities from toxic chemicals.
