DEVELOPING...the Supreme Court is set to decide
West Virginia v. EPA, a case that centers on the EPA’s authority to set limits on carbon emissions.
A decision could come as soon as this week.
The decision threatens key sections of the Clean Air Act and could limit the EPA’s authority to cut climate pollution from power plants. We are anticipating
the most environmentally devastating decision in decades.
But there is a way forward. If the EPA’s ability to curb climate pollution from power plants is diminished, the single most important thing we can do
right now is push Congress to pass major climate legislation that dramatically reduce emissions.
We have a shot. The House has already passed a bill, and the Senate is in negotiations now.
A group of donors has just agreed to triple match every contribution to our campaigns. The
absolute best thing you can do to help right now is this:

Friend — the worst-case scenario is a distinct possibility. This decision could both escalate the climate crisis — AND gut our government's duty to enforce countless laws that protect our health and safety, from food safety to pollution dangers and much more.
This is a red-alert moment for the environment — and we're calling on our members to help.
If the Supreme Court guts the EPA's authority to cut power plant climate emissions, getting a climate bill passed in Congress will be essential as our best chance to stave off the worst impacts of climate change.
We must do EVERYTHING possible to make climate action a reality. LCV's months-long, multi-state campaign to pass the climate bill has been like running back-to-back marathons. We never thought we would have to keep it going for this long. The truth is, how much we raise right now will make or break our ability to keep our efforts going.
If everyone reading this right now were to pitch in — even just $5 — we'd blow through our membership goal in minutes.
This decision won't just escalate the climate crisis — it could gut our government's ability to enforce countless laws that protect our health and safety, from food safety to pollution and much more.
To minimize the damage, we need to act quickly.
Corporate polluters will celebrate this disastrous decision, but
the environmental movement has something they don't — the support of grassroots activists like you who are committed to saving our climate from radical politicians.
Please, triple your impact. Claim your LCV membership for just $5 right now to get the climate bill over the finish line.
Thank you for standing with us at this important moment.
Onward,
Alex, Caitlyn, and Krysten
