Make a difference in the challenge to confront global warming and prevent nuclear war and the development and use of nuclear weapons.
Support strong nationwide action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.
Powerful forces in Congress are trying to fatally undermine the Environmental Protection Agency.
It’s shocking but true. Congress is voting on dozens of proposals that would strip EPA of funding to implement the Clean Air Act… postpone vitally needed controls on air pollution… and deny EPA authority to reduce greenhouse gases. (Similar proposals seek to block EPA from protecting clean water and the environment.)
These reprehensible efforts would undo decades of health-protective measures and result in thousands of unnecessary deaths each year. We are responding to the onslaught of bills and amendments one by one, as they come up.
We also need to respond more broadly. That’s why PSR helped the League of Women Voters launch the national “Clean Air Promise Campaign.” It asks each and every one of us to pledge that we will stand up for clean air, not dirty polluters.
Please join me in signing this promise – either the original Promise, or PSR’s specially tailored Promise by Health Professionals. We’ll make sure your signature is delivered to Capitol Hill.
Together, we can tell legislators across the country that the health of our kids, our families and our neighbors must come first -- and that big polluters must clean the air.
