President Trump's cabinet — led by
Scott Pruitt (who resigned following revelations of misconduct),
Ryan Zinke (who was replaced after ethics investigations revealed abuse of power), and
David Bernhardt (a former Big Oil lobbyist) — is illegally assaulting our environment and undermining environmental protections.
That's where I come in.
Today I filed a lawsuit in Alaska federal court to protect the Arctic Refuge from drilling. I'm leading a coalition of 15 states deeply troubled by the Trump administration's flawed environmental analysis and the potential impacts on climate change.
Join me in defending the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) from President Trump's illegal oil drilling plan.
The Trump administration's environmental review for the drilling plan declares,
"There is not a climate crisis."
That's false.
Drilling in ANWR will increase carbon emissions and exacerbate the impact of climate change on Washington's environment and economy.
The public deserves, and has the right to, a thorough environmental analysis on actions that could accelerate climate change. The Trump administration must provide that analysis to the public.
In short — President Trump must follow the law. Add your name if you agree.
Rest assured: my legal team tracks every single one of the Trump administration's harmful and unlawful attacks on the environment. Sometimes the administration escapes public accountability by distraction and obfuscation —
but it's harder to lie and spin before a federal judge.
That's why we keep winning.
Half of our lawsuits and half of our 33 legal victories against the Trump administration involve the environment.
My legal team and I will continue protecting the environment from the federal government's unlawful assaults for as long as it takes.
But I need to know you're with me:
