Here’s the situation, Friend: since taking a majority in the House, Republicans have circulated a series of energy-related bills, each of which would cause irreversible damage to the environment. These bills include plans to ramp up oil and gas drilling. To approve additional pipelines. To gut clean energy funding. To remove the power of communities to comment and push back on projects that affect them — and to block Biden from being able to intervene. Many of the worst proposals have now been rolled into a single bill, what we are calling the Polluters Over People Act. House Republicans have numbered the bill H.R.1 — signifying that it is their number one priority. A vote is expected early next week. Every single member of Congress needs to hear from us right now. Please, send your letter today, before the vote. Friend — we want to be clear — with a Republican majority in the House, there is a serious risk that this bill clears that hurdle. We need to ensure that doesn’t happen without a fight. If the environmental movement stays quiet during this vote, it sends a signal to decision-makers that this bill, or aspects of it, are acceptable. We need EVERYONE in Congress to get the message — loud and clear — that the public will NOT support destructive energy proposals that lock us into decades of dirty fossil fuels. We will NOT support bills that perpetuate the climate crisis. We will NOT support bills that cut communities out of the process. Send your letter today — before they vote: NO ON THE POLLUTERS OVER PEOPLE PACKAGE. NO ON H.R.1 >> Thank you for fighting the good fight, Friend. We’ll be in touch soon with updates and more ways you can help. Onward, Matthew Davis Senior Director, Government Affairs League of Conservation Voters |
