Republicans Are Once Again Trying to Sell Our Public Lands

Trump and Republicans are once again trying to sell off millions of acres of public lands to billionaires and corporate polluters as part of Trump's dirty budget bill. These lands belong to all of us, not corporations and billionaires. We need to make it clear that we love our shared lands and waters and want to see them protected, not sold to the highest bidder.

Stop the Trump Admin From Trading Our Safety for Polluter Profit

Right now, the Trump admin is attempting to rewrite safety rules for methane gas export terminals, known as LNG terminals. The current safeguards are profoundly out of date. However, instead of strengthening protections, the Trump admin plans to weaken them as another handout to the oil and gas industry. We can't continue to sacrifice frontline communities for corporate profits. Too many lives have already been lost, and too many people are already at risk to go backwards.

The comment period is open until July 7. Add your voice!

Donate to Protect Our National Parks and Other Public Lands

With your help, we are fighting Trump's bad budget bill with everything we've got. As currently written, this budget slashes funding for the National Park Service, threatening Americans' ability to enjoy public lands and museums. It promotes dirty energy, advances the expansion of harmful mining activities, and guts environmental-justice initiatives.

Help us fight back against the worst parts of this bill and support all of our efforts to protect public lands by making a donation today.

What Will Happen if Republicans Revoke California's Clean Air Act Waiver?
[link removed]

For more than 50 years, the federal Clean Air Act has granted California special authority, called a waiver, to set tailpipe standards that are stricter than federal ones. Last month, in what experts say is an unprecedented and illegal move, Congress voted to yank three of California's waivers granted by the EPA under the Biden administration.
