Defending and Strengthening Environmental Laws
Everyone has a right to a healthy environment, and we connect key constituents and people most affected by environmental harm with their elected leaders. By building a movement that defends the environment and public health, we can ensure the laws that protect us remain strong and effective for future generations.Â
Meanwhile, our partners at Earthjustice continue to be a leading voice in using environmental law to protect people and the planet. Their legal victories have been critical in safeguarding the environment and ensuring people have a safe and healthy place to live. However, the environmental laws we rely on to protect our planet and communities, such as the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the National Environmental Policy Act, face unprecedented threats. Â
Our founding mission, since 2017, has been to defend and strengthen these bedrock environmental laws, ensuring they remain intact and enforceable, regardless of who holds political power in the White House or Congress. Through grassroots advocacy, lobbying, and constituent education, we expand Earthjustice’s political power and bring the strength of our partnerships to defending the environment and public health. Â
These fights move quickly, and we need your help. Join us today and stay tuned for opportunities to get involved with our work.Â
