We Just Won a MAJOR Public Lands Victory in California - Let's Keep the Momentum Going! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746bd8dcd4464f537f2dc0eba2e60cd89c2ecf8faa86e7388fe41c5bc561615286e08

Following years of advocacy by local activists and more than 10,000 Sierra Club supporters, President Biden just announced the expansion of California's majestic San Gabriel Mountains
and Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monuments. This is a huge win for local communities and brings the state closer to its climate resilience goals – but with many more crucial ecosystems
nationwide facing the grave threats of overdevelopment and climate change, we can't stop there.
Tell President Biden: Keep going! We need more protections for our nation's public lands. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746bd8dcd4464f2ec404710bad8221036d678a1bb60c257eac7d47573127730ed33

URGENT: Stop the Mountain Valley Pipeline's Reckless Rush to Approval <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746bd8dcd4464fc2b5604b9753e92bea2996022f63f71c8b02edcd84a5de5d0e73b54f8c1a771af927596bb

The dirty, dangerous Mountain Valley Pipeline project has already degraded the habitat of endangered species and poses a massive risk to the air and water of nearby communities. But
the pipeline's owners are pushing federal regulators to allow them to begin operations just two weeks from now – even though the project has still not met the safety measures required
for approval.
Tell federal regulators: Say NO to the Mountain Valley Pipeline and stop this environmental disaster in the making. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746bd8dcd4464f2b2b5cc2a1b694324b20675f13b

In a big win for outdoor recreation, the House just passed the bipartisan EXPLORE Act – a groundbreaking set of measures that will promote equity, inclusion, and expanded access to the
outdoors for all Americans. Now the Senate has the opportunity to pass their version and help more kids, families, veterans and other communities enjoy the nature all around us.
Time is running out – tell your senators to pass the America’s Outdoors Recreation Act today. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746bd8dcd4464ffe700af1ab5224bd502c60dd8359e39e8c82d929a7a10c077

Defenseless gray wolves are being tortured, baited, and trapped across the Northern Rockies region as state leaders make it easier for hunters to use cruel tactics against these iconic
animals. The Sierra Club has joined more than a dozen conservation organizations in suing the US Fish and Wildlife Service to restore critical endangered species protections to these
wolves before they're driven back to the brink of extinction.
Make a gift to the Sierra Club today to help defend wolves and strengthen our grassroots campaigns pressuring Congress to do more for endangered species. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=bd746

Tourism is thriving in Yosemite, one of our country's most beloved national parks – but environmentalists are sounding the alarm as construction projects cut down trees, uproot native
plants, and slice into boulders to make way for more parking spaces, paved pathways, and sewer lines.
