John, a new federal rule announced this week weakens environmental protections and continues to ignore science. We need you to stand with Hiral now to oppose it.
As reported by Politico:
|
"The Trump administration is proposing scaling back a bedrock federal environmental law to make it easier to build infrastructure like roads and pipelines by sidestepping concerns about climate change and imposing strict deadlines on federal agencies.
The National Environmental Policy Act requires agencies to conduct detailed environmental reviews for major projects that receive federal funding or permits and could significantly affect the environment, such as by increasing air pollution or bulldozing wildlife habitat. In a proposed rule announced by President Donald Trump [on Thursday], the federal government would narrow its interpretation of the 50-year-old law..."

The National Environmental Policy Act ensures that construction projects are done in a responsible way that preserves areas of natural beauty and minimizes their contribution to climate change. But the current administration, working to help pro-polluter special interests, wants to change that.
Their new proposed rule must go through a mandatory period of public feedback -- so now is the time for us to make our voices heard.
Will you help us get 10,000 signatures in opposition to this anti-environment rule?
Add Your Name
Hiral believes in a pragmatic, comprehensive approach to tackle climate change. Key to that is having reasonable regulations to protect our air, land, and water.
The new rule would severely hurt our ability to protect our environment, and we need to show that the American people demand responsible leadership.

Thank you,
