Dear NRDC Activist,

Pro-polluter zealots are coming for our hard-won
environmental protections with a wrecking ball right now.

Encouraged by the dramatic rightward shift in our federal
judiciary, they believe they have an opening to tear down our
rights to breathe clear air, drink clean water, and defend our
communities from pollution.

But I think they are seriously underestimating us. And by
us, I mean you ... and NRDC's legal team.

I need your help to send America's very best environmental
litigators to court. Today is the final day to give to the NRDC
Legal Fund and have your gift MATCHED — and ensure this team can
stay in court until these attacks are repelled. ( [link removed]

String Encrypted value]&gs=[Gift String Encrypted value] )

I'll be frank — since the Supreme Court undermined
the EPA's ability to regulate climate pollution earlier this
year, the right-wing offensive to shred our environmental
protections is well underway. In fact, the very first case on the
Supreme Court's docket this term was an attack on the Clean Water
Act. If polluters succeed, protections for drinking water sources
for 100 million people could vanish overnight.

The legal team here at NRDC is fighting back against this
wave of alarming polluter attacks right now: We're in court
arguing against polluters who are determined to halt progress
toward clean-energy vehicles by torpedoing California's historic
plan to transition to 100% emissions-free car sales by 2035.

And we just moved to join a case to help save Utah's Bears
Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments from yet
another coordinated, ideological attack to hand them over to the
fossil fuel industry.

Help us reach our goal of $100,000 with a matched gift
before midnight TONIGHT! The NRDC Legal Fund is our best shot at
defending our environment against polluters in Trump-stacked
courts. ( [link removed]

As scary as these cases are, they are just a prelude to
what we expect will be a steady barrage of legal attacks now that
the Supreme Court has all but given polluters the green light to
attack our environmental protections.

And we know that if these polluters win, it will hurt the
most vulnerable among us—low-income communities and communities
of color who are forced to live near toxic factories, who have
dangerous levels of lead in their drinking water, and who
continue to bear the brunt of environmental injustice.

There's no two ways about it: the legal response must be as
tough and unyielding as the attacks we're facing, and our team of
whip-smart, dedicated, and experienced lawyers at NRDC are up to
the job.

Now I have to ask: Are you with us? ( [link removed]

Make your gift of just $5 before MIDNIGHT when the Legal
Fund match expires, so we are ready to hit back with maximum
legal power. ( [link removed]

Thank you for your generous support. Together, we can do
this.
