Dear John,
The election results are in -- and a majority of the American people rejected
Trump’s agenda of destroying our environment and harming our communities. Help undo Trump’s extreme anti-environment agenda.

Voters chose Joe Biden for President. Now, we have a mandate to not only undo
the damage Trump has done -- but to build a stronger progressive future.
This is an opportunity to restore our bedrock environmental protections, phase
out fossil fuels, and build a food system that benefits pollinators and people
instead of Big Ag. We can’t do this without you, John.

[[link removed]]Over the last four years, people like you have fought every day to stop the
Trump administration's attacks on the most basic protections for people and the
planet. We won some important battles -- like protecting millions of acres of
public lands from Big Oil, slowing down Pebble Mine, and stopping the Atlantic
Coast Pipeline.
But we also watched the EPA roll back regulations. We saw protections stripped
for Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments. We lost the
Waters of the U.S. Rule, protection from the brain-damaging pesticide
chlorpyrifos, and decades of progress in the fight to prevent climate chaos.
President-elect Joe Biden will have his work cut out for him. He must not only
reverse the worst attacks on our environment -- but make up for four years of
lost time and rapidly expand environmental protections that center justice for
the communities most impacted.
It’s a tall order -- and he won’t go far enough without pressure from people
like you. That's why we need to start now to push Biden toward ambitious
progressive change.

need!

[[link removed]]At Friends of the Earth, we have a comprehensive plan to undo the damage from
the Trump years and push Biden to protect people and the planet:
* Biden is already vetting candidates to serve in top agency positions like EPA
Administrator and Secretary of the Interior. After four years of corrupt,
racist, and incompetent officials like Scott Pruitt and William Pendley, many
of the agencies that regulate the environment are struggling. We’ll push
Biden to appoint true progressive leaders who have the experience and the
vision to reshape these agencies to serve people, not corporate polluters.
* Once Biden takes office, we’ll work in Washington DC and across the country
to quickly advance progressive rules and legislation. Biden can start by
banning bee-killing and brain-damaging pesticides like chlorpyrifos, vetoing
Pebble Mine once and for all, stopping fossil fuel leasing on our public
lands, and rebuilding the economy in a way that centers communities over the
fossil fuel industry.
* The next two years will determine whether we prevent the worst impacts of the
climate crisis and whether the communities most impacted are left behind. So
we’ll work with both the Biden administration and leaders in Congress to pass
strong climate legislation that puts frontline communities and workers first.
Meanwhile, we’ll push to close loopholes and giveaways to the fossil fuel
industry and Big Ag, and we'll make sure no new fossil fuel bailouts sneak
into COVID relief packages.
This is not a time for half-measures or false solutions. But we need your help
to hold our leaders accountable every step of the way.
Together, we can put our country on a path to recover from the Trump years and
strengthen our protections for the Earth and everyone who depends on it. But we
can’t wait -- what Biden does in the next few weeks will set the stage for the
next two years. John, are you with us?
Restoring our environmental protections -- and our democracy -- starts now.
