Message * Dear friend, Last week, I signed Environment New Mexico's petition to my members of Congress to protect our waterways. Already, nearly 10,000 people have signed the petition. With Congress about to hold hearings, will you help us reach 15,000 by signing today? http://www.environmentnewmexico.org/action/clean-water/protect-our-waters?id4=ES As you know, any great waterway can only be as clean as the small streams that feed it and the wetland that helps keep it clean. But in a bitterly divided Supreme Court decision, Justice Scalia wrote thousands of small streams -- and millions of acres of wetlands -- right out of the Clean Water Act. This is crazy. Now, if a company wants to dump toxic chemicals into one of those streams, there is nothing the federal government can do to stop them. In fact, the EPA says there are already 500 cases where this misguided decision is making it difficult to impossible to stop polluters who are degrading our waters. The solution is simple: Restore the protection of the Clean Water Act to all of our streams and wetlands. Overcoming the powerful polluters and politicians who are standing in the way won’t be easy. Please add your voice to our call for protection today. http://www.environmentnewmexico.org/action/clean-water/protect-our-waters?id4=ES Thanks. ***** You've been sent this email by a friend.
