I wish this weren’t so difficult, Friend.

Over the weekend, while many of us were gathering with friends and family to celebrate the 4th of July, Trump signed the Big, Ugly Bill into law. It is a cruel and hateful bill, and the impact on people will be profound — having to pay higher utility bills, getting kicked off Medicaid and SNAP, and the terrorizing of immigrant communities with ICE raids, to name just some. All of this is being done to facilitate the largest transfer of wealth in our nation’s history.

This law is a disaster, and the Republicans in Congress who voted for it have demonstrated that they don’t care about our families, our environment or our future. Their hope is that in the long term, we’ll forget about this. That is not going to happen. LCV and the Conservation Voters Movement will never stop fighting for our climate and for an equitable clean energy future that lowers costs and ensures access to clean air and water for all for generations to come.

Together we are powerful, and by joining LCV, you are making a commitment to a better future than the one Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to force on us. Our summer membership drive match has extended through July, so please, make a gift to LCV today.

LCV is prepared to mobilize a fierce backlash from constituents against lawmakers who voted for this unpopular bill — and we will be there every day, running ads, mobilizing constituents on the ground, and making sure the public knows who’s responsible for the harm this bill causes. I am so proud to do this work alongside my colleagues at LCV and across the movement, and I know that the only way we’ll get through this is together. There’s no one I’d rather be in this fight with than you.

With fierce commitment,

Pete Maysmith

President
League of Conservation Voters
