Sign the Petition: stand up for the Clean Power Plan!

FACT: 2014 was the hottest year on record – and 2015 is on track to break the record again. And here in the Pacific Northwest, we endured the worst fire season in recent memory.

For far too long, the science deniers in Congress have been holding us back from facing up to this environmental threat. But there’s a bright side: President Obama has put in motion our nation’s most ambitious effort yet to tackle global climate change – a Clean Power Plan that will drastically reduce our reliance on carbon-based fuels.

Sign the Petition: stand up for the Clean Power Plan!

Is it any surprise that the big polluters and their coal-loving friends in Congress are on the attack? Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has openly told states not to comply with the new Environmental Protection Agency rules, and Republicans have even threatened to defund the EPA.

We can’t wait around any longer. It’s time to take action on climate change. Add your name. Right Now. Show your support for the President’s clean power plan!
