🚨🚨This attack on the @EPA workforce is unprecedented in scope and scale.🚨🚨
The result could be a severe slowdown or shutdown of our work protecting human health and the environment in the Great Lakes.

These employees work on getting the lead out of pipes or enforcing environmental laws like the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act.
They work on turning contaminated land into usable land.
They work on Superfund sites, cleaning up toxic pollution.
Firing them hurts YOU.
EPA tells 1,000 employees they could be fired "immediately" trib.al/IN1XyyK

The evidence is clear: climate change is already causing more severe weather events. Hurricane Milton caused "at least 20% more rain & 10% stronger winds" than a similar storm in a world without global warming.

“Community solar needs to be a top legislative priority this fall to remove barriers preventing low-income and multi-family households from adopting solar programs.” - Rep. McKinney bit.ly/4gO4w0j #MICommunitySolar

.@HouseGOP's resolution hinders West Michiganders’ right to clean air and ability to cut costs while jeopardizing the planet our children will inherit. I spoke on the House floor today about how harmful and counterproductive this resolution would be to MI-03.

Michigan’s clean energy laws will help U.P. residents lower costs and reduce pollution. Read our coalition’s full statement renewing support for the clean energy standard signed into law last year: bit.ly/memj731 #MICleanEnergyFuture

🚨🚨🚨ACTION ALERT - Bills allowing for huge #DataCenters would place massive water burdens on already overstressed communities - they've passed #MiLeg Senate and the House will vote on it soon!
These bills were passed WITHOUT tribal consultation. They'd provide massive tax breaks to wealthy corporations with NO community benefit.
Take action now by calling your House Rep and telling them to kill this bill! See below for a list of Representatives and phone numbers. Let's light up that switchboard!

With rising costs, it’s gotten harder for family farmers to compete with corporate agriculture companies. Wind and solar provide farmers with a valuable new income stream, making the most of less productive land and keeping the farm in the family. #MICleanEnergyFuture

Looking for a fun way to give back? Swing by the Michigan Chapter's activist night in Detroit and find your perfect #volunteer opportunity. We're fighting for clean air, clean water, and healthy communities - help us make a difference! bit.ly/miscvolunteer320
If you're with us in the belief that our elected leaders can do much, much more, petition @POTUS + @EPAMichaelRegan to act boldly and swiftly to finalize and implement the strongest possible pollution standards to meet our climate, public health and environmental justice goals.

We can’t wait for a disastrous oil spill in the Great Lakes.
Read my op-ed on the need to shut down Line 5 immediately 👇🏽

MI Climate Action retweeted
Enbridge is a wealthy Canadian fossil fuel corporation that operates the Line 5 oil pipeline through the Great Lakes.
This pipeline endangers 21% of the world’s fresh surface water just so Endbridge can make a profit. It’s time to #ShutDownLine5! apnews.com/article/enbridge-…
