To: President Donald Trump
Stop Trump from weakening one of our bedrock environmental laws!
I urge you not to adopt any changes to the National Environmental Policy Act that would weaken its ability to protect our environment. This includes anything that would restrict public participation, prevent agencies like the EPA from objecting to plans or proposing alternatives, limit the role of the EPA to protect air quality and more.
Why is this important?
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires the government to request public input into projects, seek less harmful alternatives, and minimize the impact on the environment. In short, it’s the “Magna Carta of environmental law.”
Now, the White House wants to gut NEPA, setting the stage to eliminate it entirely. This would be a huge giveaway to the fossil fuel industry. We need your help to stop it!
