Hi all,

 

Please see below social guidance highlighting a lawsuit filed by 21 state AGs against the Trump administration for “unlawful, unjustified, and sweeping revisions” to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) is one of the only laws that gives communities the chance weigh in on important federal projects happening in their backyards. These rollbacks are illegal and must be stopped. #ProtectYourVoice

ICYMI – More than 20 states filed a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration’s illegal rollbacks to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Trump’s rollbacks would make it easier to rubberstamp permits for corporate polluters and would disproportionately harm Black, Brown and Indigenous communities. #ProtectYourVoice
