“The Trump administration’s effort to punch loopholes into long-standing protections under the National Environmental Policy Act would put communities at risk and worsen climate change. The Trump administration has a legal and moral duty to protect all Americans, especially our children, from climate pollution and industrial environmental threats. This unlawful and dangerous action takes our country in the wrong direction.”
- Vickie Patton, EDF General Counsel
