More than 43% of all coal produced in the U.S., and more than 85% of all federal coal, comes from the Powder River Basin. The Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM’s) decision to wind down coal leasing will keep billions of tons of highly polluting coal in the ground. We need your help to defend the decision.
The administration’s decision is a direct result of Earthjustice litigation that resulted in a federal judge forcing the BLM to redo its environmental analysis for coal mining plans in Powder River Basin.
Mere weeks after this victory, the fossil industry’s allies in Congress are already lining up to overturn the decision.
Tell the Department of the Interior you support its plan to wind down coal leasing in the Powder River Basin.
The market has moved away from coal as an electricity source as states and energy-consuming companies seek out cleaner and more affordable energy sources. That’s why the coal industry is desperately using its remaining political influence to keep itself afloat — its continued existence is not warranted on economic or environmental grounds.
Though the industry has a legacy of influence in Washington, we have you. Join us in writing a letter to the Department of the Interior in support of the leasing wind down.
