Dear NRDC Supporter,
In my 35 years as an attorney with NRDC, I've never seen such an aggressive, coordinated effort to dismantle the environmental laws that protect our air, water, wildlife, and public lands.
Stopping the Trump administration's assault on these bedrock environmental protections — and safeguarding the progress we've fought decades to secure — demands every ounce of our collective strength. That's why this 3x match is so critical right now.
Donate by December 31 and your gift will be TRIPLED, up to $515,000, to strengthen NRDC's work on every front — in the courts, in the halls of government, and anywhere polluters try to push their agenda through.
I've spent decades in courtrooms, and I can tell you with certainty: your support is not symbolic — it's an essential part of our legal strategy.
When NRDC attorneys show up in court, we're backed by a community of 3 million supporters who give us the strength and standing to protect our environment.
That's not just an impressive number, it's real legal power. Our members give us the legal standing we need to hold polluters and governments accountable when they break the law.
And it works. With your support, we've defeated the disastrous Keystone XL pipeline. We've protected imperiled species like the rusty-patched bumble bee. And we stopped Alaska's Pebble Mine, which threatens one of the largest wild salmon fisheries on earth.
And we're counting on that support again because the challenges we're facing today are even greater.
Right now, we are waging nearly 150 courtroom battles in defense of the environment, including 26 cases against the current Trump administration — and these numbers are climbing every week.
The outcome of these legal challenges depends on your support now:
Donate by December 31 and TRIPLE your impact to help us win landmark cases and defend our environment on all fronts.
You know what's at stake. We cannot enter the new year at a disadvantage. We must shore up our resources and be ready for whatever comes at us on day one.
NRDC's greatest strengths — the effectiveness of our lawyers, the tenacity of our advocates, and the rigor of our experts — have always been rooted in the power of this community.
Thank you for being a part of it, and for protecting the wild places and wildlife we could lose forever. Because of you, we have the power to fight back — and the power to win.
Joel Reynolds
Senior Attorney, NRDC
P.S. This match ends on December 31. Triple your impact now and help us start 2026 ready for anything.
