Clean Air Act intact for the moment!

  

SPECIAL UPDATE — DIRTY AIR ACT IS DEFEATED!

Dear Aubrey,

Thanks to your efforts, the Clean Air Act still stands as one of our most important environmental laws, protecting public health and the environment.

Today the the Senate defeated Senator Murkowski's Resolution to cripple the Clean Air Act, and let oil and other corporate polluters off the hook.

By a narrow margin, the Senate voted 53-47 to uphold EPA's authority to regulate greenhouse gas pollution and put science ahead of politics when it comes to public health and putting our country on a clean energy path.

Thank you for sending emails to your Senators — more than once! It took a strong and concerted outcry from many Americans to defeat this resolution. Our work is not finished until we have comprehensive energy and climate legislation but we will continue to work toward that goal and we know we can count on your help.

Thank you!
