Dear Ann, </p>
<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
We’ve heard about draconian funding cuts eviscerating protections for the things we care about, but it’s not just budget cuts. Our core environmental protections themselves are under attack.</p>
<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
As Congress sprints to pass government spending legislation for the rest of the current fiscal year, damaging “riders”—policy provisions inserted into must-pass spending bills—are rearing their ugly heads. When the spending bill becomes law, so does the rider.<strong>
This year Congress included as riders on appropriations bills a whopping 148 assaults on the safety of our drinking water, funding for toxic waste cleanups, vital endangered species protections and more.
</strong></p>
<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">

<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
The FY 2017 spending bill includes riders that would:</p>
<span align="left" style="margin:1em 0em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
<ul>
<li style="margin-bottom:10px">Threaten the streams that provide drinking water for one in three people living in the United States.
</li><li style="margin-bottom:10px">Force taxpayers to foot the bill for the costly clean-up of toxic industry messes.
</li><li style="margin-bottom:10px">Block federal protections for certain populations of gray wolves—just one of 11 riders targeting endangered species.
</li><li style="margin-bottom:10px">Prevent implementation of a new safeguard to clean up smog.
</li><li style="margin-bottom:10px">Deny national monument protection for nationally significant treasures on our public lands and in our oceans.

</span>
<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
<strong>Riders have to “ride” on spending bills because they’re too unpopular to pass on their own. This isn’t how the legislative process should work.</strong> By allowing controversial riders on spending bills, Congress evades public scrutiny and risks government
shutdowns. We need good governance—not backdoor assaults on our fundamental environmental protections.</p>
<p align="left" style="margin-bottom:12px; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:18px; color:#333; line-height:22px; text-align:left">
These controversial riders are attacks on the environment and public health. We need clean water to live. We shouldn’t have to pay for cleaning up toxic industry messes. And science-based species protections should never be stripped arbitrarily by politicians
in Congress.</p>
