Friend — Here's what you need to know: Pro-environment lawmakers in the House successfully attached a series of environmental provisions to the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act.
These amendments would allow military resources to be used to prepare for the impacts of climate change AND make polluters pay for dangerous PFAS chemical contamination.
The White House has put out a veto threat. This is going be huge.
Negotiations are happening
right now — and we need to make sure these pro-environment measures stay in the final bill.
Our teams are on Capitol Hill meeting with key members and their staff. But with only a short window until the bill is finalized,
if we can't go bigger, we won't win.
We're asking every LCV member to renew their support today. Right now it only costs $5.
Please, friend — renew your LCV membership for just $5 today »
There's more you should know. We're in the midst of our Summer Membership Drive — one of the most important campaigns of the year for LCV.
A major donor has agreed to contribute $500,000 to fund our campaigns for the rest of 2019 — only IF 10,000 people pitch in first.
This is when we bring in the bulk of our funding to keep our work running for the rest of the year. With so many attacks on the environment, we're turning to our members to make it all possible.
If everyone reading this right now pitched in just $5, we'd blow through our goal in minutes.
Here's where things stand:
2019 SUMMER MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
- GOAL: 10,000 donations
- PROGRESS: 79% to goal
Can you confirm your status?
