Friend — While the nation's eyes are turned towards impeachment,
Senate Republicans are trying to sneak through a slew of anti-environment riders in a series of budget bills that must pass to keep the government running in November.
They think we're too distracted to stop them — they couldn't be more wrong.
In fact, we've got plans to ramp up the pressure in these final moments before they vote — but with attacks on endangered species, clean air and water protections, and more coming from every corner, our resources are stretched thin.
We
cannot let up this fight.
But our $2-for-$1 triple match offer expires at midnight TONIGHT. Will you pitch in with a gift of $5 or more before it's too late? Your impact for the environment will go three times as far!
If the Republicans — with Trump's support — manage to force through these dangerous riders as part of the Interior Department budget, we'll suffer the consequences for years to come. They'll gut protections for the endangered sage grouse. They'll
allow corporate polluters to operate dirty incinerators in the Alaskan wilderness. They'll
slash funds that protect our public lands and water sources…
… and that's only the beginning.
We can stop them. We did it this summer, flooding Congress with phone calls and letters, making so much noise they had no choice but to listen. We successfully blocked a laundry list of terrible "poison pill riders" from making it into the House's version of the EPA budget — including rollbacks of rules that limit carbon pollution and keep the Arctic off-limits to oil and gas drilling.
We must do it again. I know we can. But that victory was only possible because LCV members like you pitched in at the moment we needed you most.
Friend, we need you with us again — and for just a few more hours, anything you can chip in will TRIPLE in impact. Please, please, please don't miss out on this chance. Even $5 makes a real difference.
Thank you for your support, and for everything you to do help safeguard our environment. None of this would be possible without you.
Sincerely,
Gene Karpinski
