BREAKING: Campaign Legal Center, Union of Concerned Scientists, Organization of Chinese Americans, Japanese American Citizens League, and Sierra Club have filed a lawsuit challenging Elon Musk and DOGE's unlawful and devastating funding and staffing cuts to the U.S. National Park Service and Forest Service. “American families are already feeling the effects of Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s careless and illegal cuts to our federal workforce," said Sierra Club Executive Director @BenJealous. "Firefighters and forest management staff have been dismissed as families remain on edge from the threats wildfires pose. Families wanting to enjoy our national parks, forests and monuments are being welcomed with closed signs, long lines, and unmaintained trails–before the parks’ busiest season has yet to begin."

Yesterday, we joined our partners to urge the legislature to pass the Packaging Product Stewardship Act (S3398/A5009) or #EPR bill. This will require companies selling products in NJ to cut #plastic packaging by 50% over the next 10 years. The bill was released from committee!📦

Donald Trump is endangering our health, our safety, and our future. In closing the EPA’s Office of Environmental Justice and shuttering the DOJ’s Environment and Natural Resources Division, he is stripping American families and communities of critical protections that hold corporate polluters accountable. The American people deserve an administration that will put people over polluters.
