Take Action

Oppose cuts to the EPA

 

The House of Representatives voted for a bill that could jeopardize the very heart of our country’s environmental protections by slashing nearly 40 percent of the Environmental Protection Agency’s budget. If this alarming bill becomes law, it will deal a devastating blow to the EPA’s ability to protect our environment and the health of our communities.

The stakes are high and we can’t afford to wait. Take action now and implore your senators to stand against these perilous cuts to the EPA!

By taking action, you will receive important updates about our work and how you can help Trust for Public Land protect public land and parks for people.

RE: Oppose cuts to the EPA

To 

As an avid supporter of the environment, I am writing to express my deep concern about the proposal to slash nearly 40 percent of the Environmental Protection Agency's budget. This bill, if passed, will have far-reaching consequences that threaten the health and well-being of vulnerable communities and the environment we hold dear.

The EPA is indispensable in safeguarding our environment, ensuring our air is clean to breathe, our water is safe to drink, and our natural resources are protected for future generations. Cutting even a portion of the EPA budget will be a grave mistake.

I am particularly concerned with the proposed $1 billion cut in environmental justice funding, which would negatively affect historically underserved communities the most. These communities have long borne the brunt of pollution and environmental hazards, facing disproportionate health risks and social injustices. Slashing funding earmarked for environmental justice initiatives will only exacerbate the inequities that plague our communities and make them more vulnerable to pollution.

Every person, regardless of zip code, should have access to clean air, safe water, and green spaces that enrich our lives. By opposing this cut to the EPA, you stand for a healthier, more equitable future for all Americans.

Please take a stand against these detrimental cuts and show that you are committed to protecting our communities and the environment we share.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
