Yesterday, President Trump delivered a speech on “America’s Environmental Leadership.” In it, he claimed:
“We want the cleanest air, we want crystal clear water. And that’s what we’re doing.”
But his administration is actively undermining one of the biggest steps America has taken to keep dangerous climate pollution out of our air.
Don’t stand for this double talk: Demand Congress step up EPA oversight and call for real climate action.
It was only late last month that the Trump administration finalized a decision to scrap the Clean Power Plan — America’s first-ever national limits on the dangerous carbon pollution spewing from our coal-fired power plants — and replace it with a plan that has
no meaningful limits on this pollution.
This rule completely fails to fulfill EPA’s responsibility to protect Americans from climate and health-harming pollution. And as it moves forward, Trump is spreading a fake and dangerous message — one claiming his inaction on climate is enough.
This attack on climate action flies in the face of science and undermines clean energy progress that would benefit all Americans. It leaves Americans unprotected from dangerous pollution that is accelerating the climate crisis and putting Americans’ health in danger.
We can’t stand idly by and let this administration undermine our most crucial protections while touting environmental progress.
Raise your voice today, and demand Congress put an end to Trump’s biggest attack on climate protections.
Thank you for standing with us,
