Last Friday, the House passed a package of bills designed to give the coal industry free reign of our streams and mountains. The bill attacks both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Office of Surface Mining, preventing them from fulfilling their duties to limit the dumping of mountaintop removal waste.

Your congressperson voted to oppose this bill that would reverse years of progress made towards ending mountaintop removal. Please thank your member of Congress for his or her political courage.

While we were unable to defeat this package of bills in the House, there was enough bipartisan opposition to ensure that a Presidential veto can be sustained. With your ongoing support, we will continue to demonstrate America’s commitment to ending mountaintop removal.

But it’s important to take time to thank those members of Congress who have the courage to stand up against the financial and political power of the coal industry. Please take a moment to send your member a message thanking them now.
