Tell the EPA: Put People Over Polluters!
Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is quietly planning to stop considering lives saved when it comes to air pollution rules. Instead, the agency will calculate only the cost to industry when setting pollution limits. Yet again, Trump’s EPA is putting profits over people.
The EPA is supposed to protect our health, but under the Trump administration, it's abandoning decades of scientific precedent. Sign the petition to demand that the EPA count human lives!

Why is this important?
Historically, the EPA has made decisions about protecting our air based on the very real health benefits of reducing air pollution—like fewer asthma attacks and hospital visits. That practice has been essential to protecting children, frontline communities, and families across the country.
Now, the EPA wants to focus solely on the costs to industry instead of the real human impacts.
This is a dangerous shift that could weaken clean air protections and make it harder to establish and enforce rules that protect our communities. Trump’s EPA is putting industry profits ahead of public health, undermining the EPA’s very mission.
The EPA must immediately reverse course and continue to fully account for health benefits when setting air pollution standards. Protecting people’s lives should always be the government’s priority in decisions that impact the air we breathe and the water we drink.
Tell EPA leadership to follow science and put public health first!
