Save Clean Car Standards!
President Trump signed a disastrous executive order directing his EPA to start dismantling lifesaving clean car standards — measures that if kept in place would nearly double the fuel efficiency of cars and trucks, drastically reducing climate-busting carbon pollution and harmful air pollution.
These important standards help fight climate change, protect our children's health, save consumers money, decrease oil dependence and create jobs. Rolling them back means once again letting polluting businesses off the hook and leaving families across America to pay the price.
Tell Trump and EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt that you refuse to stand by as they side with the auto industry over the American people — and that you won't back down in the fight to defend our most fundamental environmental protections.
Subject: Don't destroy clean car standards
Dear President Trump and Administrator Pruitt:
I'm outraged by your plans to roll back on our country's strong clean car standards.
[Your comment will be added here]
We have a moral obligation to protect our climate from harm. The transportation sector rivals the energy sector as the single largest source of carbon pollution in the U.S. If kept in place, these standards would dramatically reduce dangerous tailpipe pollution driving climate change. They'd protect our children's health, save consumers money, decrease oil dependence and create jobs. By taking steps to roll back these standards, you are once again letting polluting businesses off the hook while leaving us, the people you are charged with protecting, to pay the price. I urge you to reverse course and keep these standards in place. If you don't, I and thousands of others will oppose you at every turn.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
