We filed our first lawsuit of the year against the Trump administration for revoking protections that cover more than 625 million acres of the ocean. When Trump tried to hand over our oceans to Big Oil in 2017, we sued—and won. We’re headed to court to fight back again.

No one should be allowed to hoard this much wealth for fueling a crisis that’s devastating our planet and taking actual lives. Why should our communities suffer while Big Oil gets richer?

President Trump has talked a big game about delivering clean air and clean water. But his EPA's move to shut down the environmental justice office means they’re turning their back on those who need a cleaner environment more than anyone.

President Trump revoked a number of environmental justice initiatives that aimed to benefit historically disinvested communities that are hit the hardest by climate impacts. We stand in solidarity with our partners and communities to fight back.

Our government is supposed to work for us—not against us. President Trump’s immediate freeze on grants, loans, and other financial assistance abandons the millions of Americans that rely on federal funding. He has no authority to cancel it.

President Trump released an executive order that attempts to reinstate permits to help bring Keystone XL back to life. It would transport 830,000 barrels of the planet’s dirtiest fuel through the U.S. every day. We can’t let Trump and his Big Oil allies have their way.

President Trump declared a “national energy emergency,” launching a repeal of successful climate and energy policies. Nobody wants dirtier air, increased health risks, or deadlier crises. This “national emergency” is just going to further enrich oil and gas billionaires at people’s expense.

Offshore drilling threatens wildlife and coastal communities–and we can’t just sell off the ocean to the highest bidder. President Biden took a big step and permanently banned new oil and gas leasing from parts of the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and Bering Sea!
