Tell Congress: Republicans have unveiled their dangerous energy

ADD YOUR NAME: Tell Congress to decisively reject dangerous,
short-sighted dirty-energy bills that threaten our health and our
climate future.
The new Republican House majority dirty-energy agenda is not
rooted in reality and would maliciously roll back commonsense
climate solutions from the Inflation Reduction Act.

The new Congress’s attacks on our climate future have begun.
This month, the new Republican majority in the U.S. House of
Representatives released a series of 17 bills to start their
dirty-energy platform – and these bills read like an oil, gas,
and coal industry wish list.
The new majority's dirty-energy agenda is
extremely concerning. They want to dramatically ramp up fossil
fuel production while undermining protections from dangerous
fossil fuel pollution.
We need to stop these bills NOW and show the House Republican
majority that the American people reject their extreme pro-fossil
fuel agenda.
Tell Congress to reject dangerous, short-sighted dirty-energy
bills that would turn back the clock on our progress toward our
climate and clean energy future. ( [link removed] )
While the Inflation Reduction Act — the largest climate action
in U.S. history — is bringing the U.S. closer to its climate
goals, attacks like these are designed to roll back commonsense
clean energy projects and keep us dependent on dirty energy far
into the future.
These bills were introduced in the House
Energy and Commerce Committee, where the new majority’s priority
appears to be cutting taxes on fossil fuel companies already
earning hundreds of billions in windfall profits while you pay
more at the pump. While they’re at it, they hope to weaken the
nation’s landmark environmental laws that protect Americans from
the pollution that comes from burning fossil fuels.
Here are some of the highlights of their
dirty-energy plan:
* Promotes More Mining and Drilling by slyly defining
almost all kinds of mining and old energy development as
“critical minerals” production, and it weakens community, worker
safety, and environmental safeguards.
* Cuts Taxes on Polluters by repealing the tax on wasteful
methane leaks from gas infrastructure enacted just last year in
the Inflation Reduction Act, encouraging companies to ignore
leaks that release potent greenhouse gases, pollute the air, and
raise consumer energy costs.
* Brings the Keystone XL Pipeline Back From the Dead by reviving
the pipeline's cross-border permit that President Biden wisely
revoked. Keystone XL was shown to be unable to safely transport
the world’s dirtiest oil from Canada through the U.S. for export,
communities along the pipeline route, and our climate, with all
the risk.
* Undermines Gas Pipeline Safety by weakening the existing
environmental review process by stripping regulatory authority
from EPA and other environmental agencies and instead giving it
to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), an agency
without environment and health expertise.
* Undercuts Fundamental Environmental Laws by allowing the EPA to
waive any and all environmental protections under the Clean Air
Act and Solid Waste Disposal Act for any facility vaguely deemed
to be a “critical energy resource.”
Big polluters and their vocal allies in
Congress want to block the transition to clean energy by turning
back the clock toward weaker environmental laws, boosting the
extraction of fossil fuels that drive climate change, and
endangering communities across the country, especially
disadvantaged communities who often bear the brunt of pollution
and health impacts.
With the severity of the climate crisis
becoming more apparent every day, we have no more time to waste
on dangerous propositions like these.
Tell Congress you reject the House GOP’s
extreme pro-fossil fuel agenda. ( [link removed] )
Thank you again for using your voice to
champion climate solutions. Together, I know we can make a
difference and stop short-sighted bills like these from becoming
law.
Sincerely,
