Dear John,

Next week, youth suing the Trump administration are heading back to federal court.

On April 13, 2026, youth from across the country will stand before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in Lighthiser v. Trump ([link removed]) , challenging President Trump’s pro-fossil fuel Executive Orders that “unleash” fossil fuels, block renewable energy development, suppress critical climate science, and exacerbate the climate crisis. They’re asking the court to allow their case to proceed on the merits.

Show your support by attending the hearing in Portland, Oregon, and bear witness to this important moment for children’s constitutional rights to life and liberty.

Join us outside the courthouse to cheer on the youth plaintiffs as they arrive—then head together to our nearby Watch Party, where you can follow the proceedings via livestream in community. After the hearing concludes, we’ll gather for a peaceful rally featuring remarks from the youth plaintiffs and their attorneys.
