Key state budget provisions to protect your drinking water, combat climate change, and ensure all Wisconsinites have an equal voice in our democracy are at risk of being cut – and we need your support with an urgent gift today to help us fight back: [[link removed]]
Dear John,
The powerful Joint Finance Committee is meeting TODAY to review Governor Evers’ proposed budget – and some of the most important provisions are at risk of being stripped away.
Co-chairs of the Joint Finance Committee, Sen. Howard Marklein and Rep. Mark Born, have already announced their plans to axe key provisions that would protect your drinking water from toxic PFAS, promote clean energy and environmental justice, and ensure every Wisconsin voter is automatically registered to vote.
Just yesterday, we asked you to contact your decision makers to let them know you support keeping these vital measures in the budget – and more than 200 conservation voters have already made your voices heard.
But there’s one more thing you can do to fight back against these attacks on your environment and democracy. Chip in an urgent gift today that helps us keep fighting for a strong state budget that prioritizes the health of your communities, environment, and democracy: [[link removed]]
Across the state, Wisconsinites like you and me are facing threats to your drinking water, the ongoing effects of climate change, and attacks on our democracy.
Gov. Evers’ budget was an attempt to address some of the most important issues facing Wisconsinites right now – but the Joint Finance Committee is putting your health and democracy at risk.
Here’s what at risk of being stripped out of the state budget with a single vote this afternoon:
* Automatic Voter Registration
* Holding polluters accountable for dangerous PFAS contamination
* Expediting efforts to set PFAS standards to protect your drinking water and surface waters
* Establishing an Office of Environmental Justice and the Office of Sustainability and Clean Energy
* Expanding the Focus on Energy program so more low income households can take advantage of energy saving programs
Can we count on your support with an urgent gift today that will help us fight to ensure the state budget addresses Wisconsin’s most pressing issues – like clean energy, safe drinking water, and an equitable democracy? [[link removed]]
Thank you for taking a stand for conservation and democracy in Wisconsin.
