The Biden Administration has a chance to deliver
BIG for public health and environmental justice, Friend.
The EPA just put out a long-needed proposal to set stronger yearly limits on soot pollution, which comes from places like coal plants, refineries and diesel engines.
But EPA’s draft rule doesn’t strengthen daily limits that could protect communities from spikes in soot pollution.
The EPA has a short window where they’re accepting public feedback. We
need to escalate our pressure campaign … and we need to do it
right now.
LCV members can make a real impact right away. We just kicked off our Membership Drive for 2023.
This is the absolute best way to help right now. Help fund our hard-hitting environmental campaigns by
renewing your LCV membership for just $5. For a limited time, every gift makes 3X the impact.
They need to get this right — soot pollution from sources like coal and diesel fuel
kills over a hundred thousand Americans each year. Communities of color, low wealth communities, older adults, and children are hit hardest.
While this is happening, anti-environmental Republicans in the House are moving ahead with their plans to sabotage the clean energy transition. First up, they’re moving closer to a vote on a
massive handout to Big Oil on the backs of taxpayers. It gets worse — they’re hoping to
force the Biden Administration to open
more of our public lands to dirty oil and gas drilling.
Can they sink any lower, Friend? While we’re pushing the Biden Administration to strengthen environmental standards, we need to keep playing defense on Capitol Hill to prevent horrific policies like Republicans’ giveaways to Big Oil from becoming law.
Last year, our movement proved that when we fight, we win — we secured historic climate legislation. Now we’re facing a two-front fight for healthier communities and environmental justice. The truth is that we need more resources to make sure that our movement is heard.
So we’re asking: help fund our campaign when you
renew your LCV membership for just $5 today. For a limited time, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE every gift to jumpstart our campaign.
Thank you for everything you do to fight for a better and healthier future for our communities.
