The Trump Admin is working until the very last second to finalize a number of devastating environmental policies.

While we look forward to a future where we can work with the Federal govt, it will take time to unwind the havoc the Trump Admin wrought.

So, we have to act. THREAD
We’re suing the Trump Admin over two rules drastically reducing the habitat protected by the #EndangeredSpeciesAct.

From the southern sea otter to the CA condor, CA is home to many iconic species at increasing risk of extinction.

There’s too much at stake to pull punches.
We’re suing the Trump Admin over a new rule enabling major sources of hazardous air pollutants like petroleum refineries & chemical plants to avoid regulation.

We can't let super polluters exploit @EPA loopholes while leaving vulnerable communities unprotected from air pollution
We’re suing the Trump Administration over its half-baked scheme to exclude certain washers and dryers from existing energy efficiency standards.

Energy efficiency standards are a no-brainer – they put money back into consumers' pockets and reduce pollution.
We’re suing the Trump Admin over its “Secret Science” rule forcing @EPA to downplay independent scientific research in favor of industry-backed propaganda.

We must protect the integrity of the science that informs our decision making.
We’re suing the Trump Admin for attempting to block future regulation of industries—like the oil and gas industry—responsible for more than half of all greenhouse gas emissions from stationary sources.

It flies in the face of reason – and the law.
We’re suing the Trump Admin for failing to strengthen standards regulating ozone pollution.

2020 was the worst year for smog in Southern CA in decades–despite the pandemic forcing us to stay home.

We need action to protect kids from the undeniable harm of ozone pollution.
We’re suing the Trump Admin for making it more difficult for future administrations to calculate the costs and benefits of Clean Air Act regulations.

We won't let the Trump Admin further endanger communities hurt by air pollution by tying @EPA's hands on its way out the door.
We’re suing the Trump Admin for making it easier for manufacturers to avoid compliance with #energyefficiency programs.

These programs save families billions each year.

Undermining them benefits no one except the industry interests the Trump Admin is determined to pander to.
