Take Action: Inhofe's Latest Attack on Clean Air


Senator James "Global Warming is a Hoax" Inhofe (R-OK) is at it again. Climate Activist—

Don't let Inhofe derail climate action.

Senator James "Global Warming is a Hoax" Inhofe (R-OK) is at it again.

His latest assault on climate action? An amendment to the Senate's unemployment insurance extension bill that would put the brakes on the EPA's plans to regulate carbon pollution.

Don't let Inhofe derail climate action. Tell your Senators to reject his dirty air amendment.

The EPA regulations that Inhofe is attacking would, for the first time in American history, put national limits on climate pollution from power plants. They set the stage for the entire U.S. Climate Action Plan—which has made them quite the target for climate action opponents.

Sen. Inhofe is definitely one of them. Just recently, he called climate change "laughable" because of the cold temperatures caused by the polar vortex. What's not laughable? The severe droughts in his home state of Oklahoma and the extreme weather we are facing across the country.

Make no mistake: a vote for the Inhofe Amendment is a vote for unlimited carbon pollution in our air. It's a loophole for big utilities that will result in more asthma attacks for our kids and less clean energy for our future.

Tell your Senators to stand on the right side of climate history, and against the Inhofe Amendment.
