Dear John,

Demand your Senators support Deb Haaland’s historic nomination. Protect our
public lands over polluter profits. Sign Now
[[link removed]]Montana Republican Senator Steve Daines and Wyoming Senator John Barrasso are
trying to block the confirmation of Rep. Deb Haaland for Secretary of the
Interior. Take action now.
[[link removed]]

Deb Haaland is an advocate for Indigenous rights, keeping fossil fuels in the
ground, and banning fracking. She would be the first Indigenous leader of the
Department of the Interior -- an agency that has huge influence over Indigenous
issues.

In contrast, both Daines and Barrasso signaled their support for Trump’s failed
Bureau of Land Management nominee William Perry Pendley, an unapologetic racist
who said Black Lives Matter was based on a lie and that Indigenous concerns were
driven by “religious myth.” Now they are trying to prevent Haaland from getting
the job. Tell your Senators to confirm her to lead the Department of the
Interior.

Take action now to support Deb Haaland, the first Indigenous Secretary of the
Interior.

[[link removed]]Deb Haaland is perceived as a threat to GOP Senators who are more concerned with
polluter paychecks than their constituents. Haaland understands how important it
is to respect Indigenous soverienty, protect our public lands and keep fossil
fuels in the ground -- both for local communities and for the environment.

It’s no wonder Steve Daines and John Barrasso are leading the charge against her
-- if she’s in a position to crack down on fossil fuel leasing on public lands,
it may directly impact their pockets. They have taken $1,158,847 and $572,327, respectively, from the oil and gas
industry.

Deb Haaland -- fossil fuel fighter and Dakota Access Pipeline water protector --
has the knowledge and experience to get things done. But Daines and other Senate
Republicans could stand in her way.

Demand your Senators support Deb Haaland and protect local communities and our
planet.

[[link removed]]Steve Daines is a stolen election conspiracy theorist and insurrectionist
supporter. While he didn’t storm the Capitol, he did fan the flames by
protesting the valid election process.

Now he’s at it again, this time trying to stand in the way of Deb Haaland’s
appointment. He is using his extreme rhetoric to fire up his base, calling her
views “radical”. But there is nothing radical about not wanting pipelines to
pollute our air, our water, and our communities.

Let’s be perfectly clear -- Daines is only in opposition because his Big Oil
allies are afraid she’ll stand up to them . Will you take a stand to protect our environment from Big Oil polluters and
their Republican cronies?

Support Deb Haaland’s nomination and protect our public lands from the fossil
fuel industry.

Nicole Ghio,
Senior fossil fuels program manager,
