Ranking Member Lofgren's Statement on Earth Day
(Washington, DC) – Today is the 55th celebration of Earth Day.
“The Trump administration will stop at nothing to decimate our environment and destroy the progress we have made in fighting the climate crisis,” said Ranking Member Lofgren (CA-18). “From dismantling critical climate monitoring programs at agencies like NOAA and NASA to plans to gut environmental research and development at the EPA that keep harmful chemicals out of our air, soil, and water—it seems Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s #1 priority is doing harm, not improving Americans’ lives and livelihoods. Democrats are fighting back. We are working together to stand in the way of this administration’s reckless actions that have already made Americans’ lives harder and less safe. We are fighting for a future better than we found it. This Earth Day, I reaffirm my commitment to do everything I can to stand in the way of Trump’s transgressions against our environment and our people.”
