Tell the EPA their CA waiver denial is an outrage!
The Environmental Protection Agency has denied California's waiver request to cut global warming pollution from automobiles. This decision
ignores the science and the law.
Seventeen other states plan to implement similar programs. EPA's action is nothing more than a heavy handed stroke to limit the authority of states to fight global warming and protect our environment.
It is reported that EPA Administrator Johnson's staff even recommended approving the waiver because it met all the necessary standards.
California is leading the country to fight global warming, and the EPA and Administrator Johnson are holding them back.
Send a letter today to Administrator Johnson expressing your outrage at this unfounded decision!
Administrator Johnson,
I am profoundly disappointed in your decision to deny California's waiver request to cut global warming pollution from automobiles. It's an outrage.
This decision is not based on science or the law. Indeed, the science tells us we must take urgent action to dramatically cut our global warming pollution or face potentially catastrophic consequences.
In April, the Supreme Court gave EPA full legal authority to not only grant this waiver but to take global warming a lot more seriously than your agency has to date.
In the last 40 years, EPA has granted all 50 previous waiver requests by states to clean up air pollution. Your decision demonstrates a blind eye to the urgent threat of global warming.
I am deeply troubled by your decision and will do everything I can to support efforts to overturn it.
