Dear NRDC Supporter,

When public lands and waters are threatened, the courts
remain one of the most powerful tools we have to fight back.

As Chief Legal Counsel at NRDC, I've seen firsthand how
smart, strategic litigation — supported by people like you — can
block reckless polluter-backed policies, restore critical
environmental protections, and safeguard places that should never
have been put at risk in the first place. And now, our public
lands are facing threats like never before.

Will you make a gift of just $5 today to help defend our
public lands and environment in and out of court? Your gift will
be matched 1-to-1 by Kate Adams, Duke Wiser, and their family. ( [link removed] )

The Trump administration's sweeping new reconciliation law
is just one part of a broader assault on our public lands and
waters. From fast-tracking drilling leases in the Arctic to
weakening protections for national forests, they're working to
hand over millions of acres to polluters.

All this to prioritize the wealth of industrial
billionaires over our nation's communities, wildlife, and
climate.

That's why NRDC's legal team is already taking action — and
preparing for more.

With your support, we are working to:

* Protect a vital marine monument off the Atlantic coast. We're
defending Northeast Canyons and Seamounts, the only marine
national monument in the Atlantic, from efforts to reopen it to
commercial fishing, which would harm deep-sea ecosystems and
endangered species.
* Maintain protections for Bears Ears and Grand
Staircase–Escalante. These iconic national monuments in Utah are
still under threat. We're in court to ensure these sacred and
ecologically critical lands remain protected from industrial
development.
* Block attempts to open protected offshore waters to oil
drilling. The Trump administration tried to undo safeguards for
more than 600 million acres of protected oceans. We're fighting
to keep those waters off-limits to drilling and safe for marine
life and coastal communities.

This is what NRDC does best: smart, strategic litigation
rooted in science, backed by decades of experience — and made
possible by people like you.

By chipping in $5 today, you're helping to drive these
legal fights and protecting our environment on all fronts. ( [link removed] )

At NRDC, we believe the law is one of our strongest tools
to protect the lands we all share. From ancient forests to Arctic
coastlines, we use it to defend places that are vital to our
climate, our communities, and future generations.

This work isn't easy — it takes time, resources, and
resolve — but with people like you by our side, it's powerful.
And it's how we win.

Sincerely,

Michael Wall

Chief Litigation Officer, NRDC
