Hi team,

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently put out an announcement that human health and life now have a $0 value in their cost-benefit analyses for approving projects that are known to risk people's health. No, that's not a typo or an exaggeration—our lives and health, according to the EPA, are worth zero dollars. (1)

The EPA's statement is clear: Corporations have value. People do not.

This is the latest step in a long, long line of corporate polluter giveaways from our federal government that put profits over people, and we can't let it get swept under the rug.

Fill out our one-minute form and tell your senators to demand that the EPA continues to protect human life as a top priority.

For decades under both Republican and Democrat presidents, the EPA has followed a simple mission: protect human health and the environment. They've limited deadly pollution from coal-burning power plants, oil refineries, and other industrial sites in order to protect Americans from asthma, heart and lung diseases, and premature death.

This EPA statement isn't a misunderstanding—this is the federal government delivering exactly what the wealthiest corporations want. The richest corporate polluters gave $219 million to political parties and federal candidates in the most recent election cycle, including nearly $23 million to Donald Trump and PACs supporting him. (2) Now, the fossil fuel industry is seeing major returns on their investment in political power.

This isn't right, and we're calling on environmental voters like you to take a stand. Fill out our quick advocacy form and tell your representatives in Congress that they need to loudly stand up against this.

Thanks for taking action with us,

Aaron McCall
Federal Advocacy Coordinator, EnviroVoters
