HOW YOU CAN HELP

Protect our waterways from toxic pollution from coal plants

The Trump administration is trying to bail out the coal industry through a public lands sell-off, taxpayer-funded subsidies, and the gutting of regulations that would protect our waterways from toxic pollution. We have until Nov. 3 to submit a public comment telling the Environmental Protection Agency that we must stop coal plants from releasing mercury and lead into our water.
