You’ve probably been hearing a lot this week about Trump’s 100 days in office, John. They’ve been the most harmful 100 days of any administration for climate, clean energy, public health, conservation, and beyond. 

For this somber milestone, the Climate Action Campaign put together a tracker for this administration’s 100 (and counting…) harmful acts against the environment. But here’s the good news: for each climate transgression carried out by Donald Trump, SEEC has a pro-climate champion fighting back in Congress.

Our ranks are 100-strong, with members representing communities across the country. They’re working around the clock to block, oppose, delay, and disarm the administration’s relentless attacks on the healthier, more sustainable future we all want. 

But just as they were elected with your support, they’re counting on you now to power their fight. Our climate can’t take much more, and our members know that there are fossil fuel-bought Republicans just waiting in the wings to unseat them at any opportunity. Will you chip in today to protect their seats and our pro-climate future?

These are just a few of the Trump administration’s attacks in the first 100 days: 

• Reopened US coastlines and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to offshore drilling 
• Proposed a budget to eliminate NOAA’s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), which would cut funding for climate, weather, and ocean research
• Directed the Attorney General to identify and stop state-level laws that address climate change and pollution
• Claimed that automobile emissions don’t affect the environment 
• Invited waivers from fossil fuel power plants on mercury pollution and other toxic pollutants under the Clean Air Act
• Announced plans to dismantle 31 federal air quality and carbon pollution regulations 
• Canceled funding for the US Global Change Research Program, which publishes America’s National Climate Assessment 

The clean air and water, conservation of public lands, and accelerated climate research that our nation enjoyed before Donald Trump was not built by a single president or member of Congress. Environmental progress was made by pro-climate actors on every front, all working toward the same goal. 

And even though this administration is actively hostile to the sustainable future that the rest of the world is heading toward, that doesn’t mean all hope is lost. SEEC has 100 members and they’re going toe-to-toe with Trump. Your support is what grew their ranks, and it’s what makes it possible to keep fighting for a sustainable future. 

Thank you, 
SEEC PAC
