Call on Your Senator to Save the Clean Air Act

The U.S. Senate’s Committee on Appropriations is expected to consider rolling back the Clean Air Act on Thursday, September 16, and the vote could be extremely close.

The Clean Air Act is the most powerful existing federal tool to limit global warming pollution, and winning the fight against potential Clean Air Act rollbacks is the most important legislative task we can achieve on behalf of the climate for the remainder of this year.

Please call your senator who sits on the Appropriations Committee and ask him or her to VOTE “NO” ON ANY CLEAN AIR ACT ROLLBACKS during the committee’s “markup” of the Interior Appropriations bill on Thursday. Here’s how:
