John – the onslaught of environmental regulatory rollbacks are starting to take effect. Due to the Trump administration’s attacks on clean air and water standards, we’re looking at the comeback of acid rain, according to the scientist who discovered it in the first place.
This was a problem we had solved decades ago through bipartisan pollution regulations. Before Congress took action, lakes and streams had become too acidic to support aquatic life, nutrients were stripped from soil and trees, and people became sick from poor air quality.
The Trump administration is not concerned about clean air and water for everyday Americans – but our 100 SEEC members in Congress are. They’re pushing back against Trump’s attempts to line the pockets of his billionaire friends and donors by cutting vital safety and public health regulations, and they’re standing up for the planet that we all share.
Here’s a quick refresher on what life was like in the United States before the Clean Air Act:
Rivers were so polluted that they caught on fire
Smog blotted out the skies in cities like New York and Los Angeles
Air pollution damaged people’s hearts and lungs, causing chronic illnesses
Thanks to your help in 2024, SEEC PAC was able to re-elect over 95% of our pro-environment members to the U.S. House of Representatives — defying the odds on a night where Democrats lost seats. Now we are counting on you to help our SEEC members pass climate, clean energy and environmental justice policies in the 119th Congress while we continue fighting for a sustainable future.
