Friend,

A just-released report warns that every species of Arctic bird is threatened with extinction due to climate change — every. last. one.

What's the Trump administration going to do to stop it? Absolutely nothing. They won't even acknowledge the looming devastation: The BLM's environmental impact statement on drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge literally states, "there is not a climate crisis."

Instead, Trump is fast-tracking plans to sell out the pristine Arctic Refuge so his cronies in the oil and gas industry can rip it open for profit. Leases for drilling could be issued any day now — and if drilling happens, the wreckage will never be undone.

There's still a brief window of time to stop this disaster in the making. The House has already taken steps to permanently protect our last truly wild lands, and we're working around the clock to pressure the Senate to do the same — but we need your help.

We have to stop drilling in the Arctic before it's too late. Make your emergency gift of just $5 or more NOW and a generous donor will triple match every dollar »

The stakes here are huge. Drilling in the Arctic Refuge would destroy land that is sacred to the Gwich'in people and that they have relied on for millennia. Snowy owls, polar bears, Arctic foxes, and countless other wildlife that are struggling to survive will be pushed to the brink of extinction.

This is a loss we could NEVER reclaim. We owe it to future generations to stop Trump from destroying more of our natural treasures.

I promise, this is a fight we can win, but we need to resist in every way possible right now. That means organizing on the ground and flooding the Senate with letters and calls demanding they take the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge off the table for drilling.

An urgent $5 donation helps on every front. It funds our advocacy campaigns on Capitol Hill. It gets our teams on the ground in swing states that could decide these fights.

Bottom line: We need your help, and right now, you can triple your impact for the environment. I hope we can count on you today.

Donate to LCV right now. Every contribution will be TRIPLED »

As always, thank you for being a part of this critical fight for our planet and our future.

Sincerely,
