Celebrate Governors Defending State Climate Laws

We stand in strong support of the courageous leadership shown by governors across the country who are refusing to back down in the face of President Trump’s unprecedented attack on state-level climate protections.

As the Trump administration directs the Justice Department to undermine environmental laws passed by states, Governors Kathy Hochul of New York and Michelle Luján Grisham of New Mexico have made it clear: states have the right — and responsibility — to protect their residents from pollution, extreme weather, and the escalating climate crisis.

By continuing to champion clean air, clean water, renewable energy jobs, and environmental justice, these governors are defending not only the health and safety of their constituents but also the core constitutional principle of state authority.

This fight isn’t just about laws — it’s about our future. We applaud these governors and all climate leaders pushing forward despite political pressure from Washington.

We are inspired by their resistance, grateful for their courage, and committed to standing with them as they protect our environment, our economy, and our democratic rights.
