Oppose Anti-Health Bill HR 3117

The Issue

Congress is currently considering a bill that would prohibit our government from taking the human costs of greenhouse gas emissions into account when making decisions about energy and environmental policy. 

This anti-health measure is serious, and extremely harmful for all of us.

HR 3117 would prohibit the Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Department of the Interior, and the Council on Environmental Quality from considering the social costs of methane, nitrous oxide, and carbon. 

Our present political atmosphere enjoys dodging the negative effects of climate change and in prohibiting the ability to measure the levels of these gases, we would be turning our backs on ourselves and the environment.

Climate change is real, and we need to move forward and understand its damaging effects on our environment, and ourselves. 

Please sign my petition to ask Congress not to pass HR 3117, and allow our climate scientists to continue to measure the cost greenhouse gases have on human life.

Greenhouse gases threaten all of us by generating power storms, fires, and extreme drought. I am very concerned about our safety, and the environment's safety from here on out.

Please voice your opinion and sign to say No to HR 3117.
