DEVELOPING... cowering under pressure from President Trump, the Republican majority in Congress has triggered a federal government shutdown, effective at midnight last night.

The longer this drags on, the more people will feel its effects: essential services suspended, environmental safety ground to a halt, and national parks and monuments closed to the public.

Friend — last night was the deadline for our Membership Drive, but with Trump’s shutdown taking hold, we’ve been able to secure last-minute approval to extend our TRIPLE MATCH.

This is urgent, Friend. Will you renew your membership for just $5 today while your support goes THREE TIMES as far to pressure Republicans in Congress to re-open our government without sacrificing the environment?

President Trump and Congressional Republicans have spent this year raising our costs — utility bills, groceries, health care, and more — while rolling back programs that make our lives more affordable.

Now they’ve shut down the government so they can continue illegally gutting essential services and fund tax breaks for corporate polluters and the ultra wealthy.

Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives — they own this shutdown.

Our job is to keep up pressure for a deal that helps lower rising energy costs and protects our environment. Pulling this off is going to take ALL of us right now.

Please, renew your membership for just $5 to TRIPLE your impact >>

Thanks for everything you do, Friend. We’ll be in touch as more develops.

Friend — our 3x match offer ends at MIDNIGHT TONIGHT, and we’re so close to reaching our $50,000 goal. How much we raise now determines how big we can go in our environmental campaigns for the rest of the year. Right now, your membership goes 3X as far.

Will you renew your LCV membership now to claim your 3X match and help defend our environment against Trump’s pro-polluter agenda?

This matching opportunity expires soon, and so does the opportunity to make your renewed membership go THREE TIMES as far to…

✅ Hold polluters accountable: The Trump administration is trying to end ALL reporting of and limits on greenhouse gases emitted by corporate polluters. We’re campaigning to stop them.

✅ Keep public lands in public hands: Trump’s Interior Department is seeking to overturn an important rule that balances public lands for conservation, effectively giving priority to Big Oil and other polluters to drill, frack, mine, and log on OUR lands — unless we act quickly.

✅ Protect climate action from anti-science extremists in Congress: With a government shutdown looming, extreme House Republicans are trying to slash all federal programs to study and combat the climate crisis. We need you in our corner before Congress votes.

The best thing you can do for our environment right now is to renew your membership for just $5 while your support will go THREE TIMES as far >>

Protecting our communities from Trump’s reckless and harmful agenda is going to take ALL of us. LCV is working around the clock to stop Trump and his allies in Congress from repealing environmental safeguards, selling off our public lands to corporate polluters, banning cheaper clean energy, and defunding climate science.

But to do any of it, we rely on support from members like you.

Please, don’t miss this opportunity to TRIPLE YOUR IMPACT when you renew your membership. Right now, $5 is all it takes >>

With gratitude,

LCV Membership Team
