The Trump administration is waging all-out war on our environmental regulations. Is the National Environmental Policy Act the next target?

I was excited to join @climateone.org to discuss Trump’s dangerous rollbacking of 50 years of environmental protections under #NEPA. Under this Administration’s plan communities and wildlife will be less safe and permitting will be more chaotic. Listen to the podcast for what we do next.

Proposed Changes to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Could Slow Economy, Reshape Environmental Review Process The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) – enacted in 1970 with bipartisan support – has played a critical role in protecting birds, other wildlife, and communities. But a new proposal from...

The Trump Administration proposed to rollback nearly 50 years of bedrock environmental regulations under #NEPA and put private companies in the drivers seat. This move will put families, communities, and Tribes at risk. Read my latest here: bit.ly/41M9sMx

All federal grants and loan disbursement paused by White House | CNN Politics The White House budget office has ordered a pause on all federal grants and loans, according to an internal memorandum sent Monday.

I cannot underscore how evil and careless this action is. People will be harmed in the name of some incoherent and cruel ideology. If you can, ask your neighbors today if they need help.

Deeply deeply concerning. At a time when federal #climate action feels less likely, states, localities, and companies must step up to the plate. We cannot allow GHG emissions to go unchecked. The results would be devastating to #birds and wildlife, our economy, #agriculture, and our communities.

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.

Responsible Offshore Wind Development is a Clear Win for Birds, the U.S. Economy, and our Climate Audubon's report shares how offshore wind can be balanced with the needs of communities and wildlife.

Regardless of what happens next for domestic #OffshoreWind, @audubon.org's new report shows that responsible offshore wind development is a clear win for #birds, the #economy, and our #climate. Read more about the case for responsible offshore wind development in my new blog post: shorturl.at/Z7y6g

Audubon Society shares solutions for supporting offshore wind production while protecting birds "What we’re actually really encouraged to find is that the risk is not as large as folks may think it is."

This week I spoke with @laurarice.bsky.social on the
