President Donald Trump is attacking the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and now it is up to us to protect it.
- President Trump hopes to cut the staff down to only 15,000 employees
- President Trump hopes to take (at least) $1 billion dollars out of the annual budget
- These are the first two steps as Trump hopes to "abolish the EPA"
- The appointed head of the EPA believes global warning has been overly "politicized" and calls it "junk science"
Clearly the new head of our country doesn't care about the environment at large but if you sign this petition, we could raise awareness about this issue and we could get Donald Trump's attention. We only have one chance to save our beautiful planet and signing this petition (while we still have free speech) might help me do that. Thank you for your consideration.

I have finalized a formal letter addressed to the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee outlining our rejection of the proposed staffing and budget cuts. This document will be delivered to their offices tomorrow morning to ensure our position is officially placed on the record during upcoming hearings.

The current momentum has moved this proposal into a position where we can formally request a briefing with the agency oversight committee. I am finalizing the language for a delivery packet that summarizes our primary objections to the proposed budget cuts and staff reductions.

If it sounds like $$$ and walks like $$$ and smells like $$$ it's probably the doing of Trump and the Republicans. Resist all changes to the EPA. Keep Standards HIGH!
Protect our our drinking water!! Our lakes rivers, streams, coastlines, air and National Parks !!!!!
How can anyone think its a good idea to gut the agency that keeps us from breathing smog? Seriously dangerous stuff going on. Keep the EPA fully funded.
Sick and tired of these people trying to sell off our land and poison our water for profit. Leave the EPA alone. Stop the cuts!
It is really bad when Trump appoints Oklahoma Attorney General, self-avowed enemy of epa, to head up the agency.
just standing on a right.
Do not allow negative changes to the existence of ther EPA or its operation.

The EPA needs to be protected for it is what protects us against corporations that Trump works for and with. Our world's environment is more important than their income.
