This bill passed out of committee by a party-line vote of 33-28, and the full House could take it up at any time. Please email your representative and tell them you expect them to vote NO on the FY26 Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill (Interior Appropriations Bill). The Interior Appropriations Bill is packed with harmful provisions that gut core environmental protections. It slashes funding for critical conservation programs, undermines protections for endangered species, and hands more power to fossil fuel companies—all while worsening the dual crises of climate change and biodiversity loss. The FY26 Interior Appropriations Bill: Slashes the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) funding by a staggering 23%. Includes 27 policy riders that prohibit EPA from enforcing environmental regulations related to the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, and hazardous waste and pesticides laws. Blocks fuel efficiency regulations, causing consumers to pay more at the gas pump. Eliminates the Energy Star program, leaving consumers in the dark about the energy efficiency of appliances. Withdraws EPA funding for climate science, climate policy, and economics, and greenhouse gas reporting. Overrides endangered species laws and removes protections from numerous species, hindering our ability to save iconic species such as the grizzly bear, long-eared bat, sturgeon, and gray wolf. These reckless rollbacks are not just about politics—they’re about the health of our communities, the survival of wildlife, and the livability of our planet. Climate change and biodiversity loss are deeply interconnected. As ecosystems collapse under the weight of pollution and habitat destruction, our ability to store carbon, maintain clean water, and protect communities from climate disasters is diminished. We cannot solve the climate crisis without also protecting the plants, fish, and the places they call home. This bill represents a grave threat to climate progress and wildlife protections. This Interior Appropriations Bill moves us several steps backward at a time when we need urgent progress. Please take action now—email your representative and demand they vote NO on the FY26 Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/oppose-anti-climate-anti-wildlife-interior-appropriations-bill
