Some in Congress are hoping to sell off our public lands to pay for Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy—and they’re even eyeing our national parks. We cannot let this happen.

Never in my decade of filing FOIA requests have I gotten a response like this. Customs and Border Protection denies my request, saying "Due to law enforcement sensitivities we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of records." No exemption cited, no name of who wrote this.

A federal judge upheld the law by declaring a massive oil and gas lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico is unlawful. This momentous win comes after we sued the U.S. Department of the Interior for failing to assess the sale's impacts on the climate and the critically endangered Rice’s whale.

If Iowa decides to censor the words “climate change,” can we also stop pretending that Iowa-grown corn ethanol is good for the climate?
Build a running list of words government & states are proposing or already using as they ban the words “climate change” from their materials. It’s homicidal.
