Because the earth needs a good lawyer

Earthjustice filed the first environmental lawsuit against the new Trump administration. There will be more to come.

When we say we’ll sue, it’s not a threat.

It’s a promise — a promise that until we achieve a better future for all, our pursuit for justice will never rest.

We will win this fight — for the wild spaces we love, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the future of life itself.

Join the fight today with a monthly donation, and your first 12 gifts will be matched $1:$1.
