Celebrate the Senate's Stand for Public Lands and the Planet

A big win for our environment and future: The Senate parliamentarian has just blocked some of the most dangerous GOP proposals aimed at fast-tracking fossil fuel development and selling off millions of acres of America’s cherished public lands.

Thanks to this ruling, Republicans can’t bypass full debate to gut environmental protections and hand public land to polluters. Provisions to greenlight offshore drilling without review, force public land sales, and weaken clean energy progress were all ruled out of bounds under the Byrd Rule.

This is a crucial victory, and it only happened because Democrats, environmental champions, and advocates fought back.

Add your name to thank the Senate leaders, staff, and grassroots activists who stood firm to protect our public lands, our environmental safeguards, and the integrity of the legislative process.
