URGENT NEWS via The New York Times:
“Coal and Gas Plants Were Closing. Then Trump Ordered Them to Keep Running.”

Trump is abusing emergency powers to force dirty coal plants to stay open. Make no mistake: This is government overreach at its deadliest, and we’re wasting no time to respond. Add your name before midnight to condemn Trump's toxic coal agenda and demand Congress step in NOW >>>
Here’s where things stand, John:
FIRST: Trump launched an all-out assault on clean air with executive orders that open our public lands to coal mining and weaponize the Justice Department against clean energy states like California and New Mexico.
THEN: He abused his emergency powers to force aging coal and gas plants in Michigan and Pennsylvania to stay open, even though grid operators never asked for it and had already planned to shut them down.
NOW: The cost of keeping these toxic plants running will total tens of millions of dollars. That burden will fall directly on families already struggling with high energy bills and polluted air.
Let’s be clear: Coal is expensive, and it’s one of the biggest drivers of climate change. It releases more carbon dioxide when burned than any other fossil fuel. It poisons our air and water and puts low-income and working-class communities at higher risk of asthma, heart disease, and cancer.
But Trump doesn't care about facts. He cares about billionaires who profit from pollution.
We're gathering as many signatures as we can before the end of today from JanePAC supporters who refuse to let Trump sacrifice our health for fossil fuel profits. Can you represent Philadelphia today by signing our petition to condemn Trump’s toxic coal agenda and demand Congress hold him accountable?
This movement is powered by people like you who care deeply and act boldly — and we aren’t turning away.
Team JanePAC
