Dear Ann,

Tell the Senate to block Trump's cabinet of climate denial, hate, and Wall Street greed!<http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=hszwMDZdqo7pNUXvTjMrqVzchU%2Ba3p58>


Donald Trump just nominated Scott Pruitt to head the EPA. Pruitt is a climate denier and Big Oil crony who seems more interested in tearing apart our environmental protections than in standing up for the planet.

And Pruitt isn't the only one. Trump is filling his government with Wall Street insiders, corporate shills, racists, xenophobes, and sexists.

The Senate still has the power to block these terrible nominees. So Friends of the Earth is joining with allies from across the progressive movement to send a strong message -- our Senators must block Trump's cabinet of hate and Wall Street greed.

Tell the Senate: Use your confirmation power to block Trump's cabinet of hate and Wall Street greed.<http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=TWMODHM%2BzWNa1vr28jh8plzchU%2Ba3p58>

Trump claims he wants to "drain the swamp," but he's doing the opposite. His cabinet picks expose his real agenda: exploiting the deepest and darkest fears in our country to enrich himself and his friends.

Already people like you are taking action to condemn Trump's racist, misogynistic, xenophobic behavior and that of his surrogates. This week, Friends of the Earth and allies delivered more than one million signatures from people like you to Congress demanding that it speak out against the appointment of White Supremacist Stephen Bannon.

But Bannon isn't the only threat. Racist, climate-denying Senator Jeff Sessions could lead the Justice Department. He'd have the power to let Exxon Mobil get away with denying the climate crisis -- potentially the biggest case of corporate fraud in history.

And Scott Pruitt is suing the EPA -- impeding the very agency he's charged with leading. He wants to roll back the Clean Power Plan and Clean Water Rule. Why? Because he's received more than $315,000 from fossil fuel industries since 2002.

At Friends of the Earth, we're working to expose and defeat Trump's terrible appointees. So we'll shine a light on their shady corporate pasts and push Congress to reject them. And if they make it through Congress, we will expose and watchdog their every move. But we need your help.

Sign the petition: Tell the Senate to block Trump's cabinet of hatemongers and corporate cronies.<http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ojKwQU47UIFNCqNtdRu45lzchU%2Ba3p58>

Personnel is policy. Trump's outrageous cabinet nominations make it clear that the only policy Trump will advance is what benefits himself and his corporate buddies.

The Senate will be a razor thin 52-48 divide between Republicans and Democrats in 2017. Many key Senate committees will be split 10-9 or 11-10. If Democrats stick together, it will only take a handful of principled Republican votes to block any Trump nominee who champions hate or greed. But we need your help to make that happen.

Tell the Senate: Oppose any Trump nominee who embraces racism, xenophobia, misogyny, climate denial, and Wall Street greed.<http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=5xHSJYkUBdbDfgWuThxrU1zchU%2Ba3p58>
