Our campaign for pro-environment policies won't work without your help.

DEVELOPING... the Biden-Harris administration has just canceled three major offshore drilling lease sales. This is big - but what happens now is going to depend on the environmental movement.

As you read this, the administration is also considering huge policy changes on oil and gas leases, vehicle fuel economy, and industrial pollution standards. We are gearing up for an unprecedented pressure campaign to win each and every one of these fights.

Here's the problem - in the wake of the canceled leases, the oil and gas industry is going ballistic. Fossil fuel interests are scaling up an all-out blitz campaign to undermine any future actions by the administration.

We need your help if we're going to stop them and hold the administration to its commitments, Friend. LCV is running a massive campaign to counter misinformation from polluters - and to ensure that the entire environmental movement is heard loud and clear. The issue is, after months of campaigns to pass climate legislation, resources are tight. We can't keep this going without you.

Bottom line, without your support, our campaigns don't work. Pitch in today by making a gift ? even $5 helps power our campaign for a clean energy future. >> [link removed]

Friend - shutting down these offshore drilling leases is a huge win. The truth is, victories like these don't just happen. We win when the environmental movement shows up in a major way.

We win when we keep the pressure up. When lawmakers' offices are flooded with calls and letters. When we show up outside their offices. At public hearings. We have to keep this going.

The stakes here are massive. As Russia's war against Ukraine causes energy prices to rise, industry lobbyists are putting serious pressure on lawmakers to green light new drilling and gas projects. Their campaigns are working - and if they succeed, they could get a green light to destroy America's public lands and add decades of climate-warming emissions to the atmosphere.

And after these latest offshore lease cancellations, the next major fight is already underway. The Interior Department is weighing a new five-year plan governing the entire federal government's oil and gas drilling policy.

This will be a massive fight, pitting environmentalists against corporate polluters' lobbyists and dark money groups - and winning will take everything we have.

Will you stand with us, Friend? We can stop Big Oil's campaign against our environment and achieve a clean energy future, but we can't do it alone. Even $5 helps us go toe-to-toe with Big Oil. >> [link removed]

Thank you for standing with us. We'll be in touch soon with more opportunities to help our campaign for pro-environment policies.

Onward,
