It's on us to change political outcomes. That means not just voting but taking active steps to change who wins elections, such as volunteering

Also, go to council meetings for your city and county whenever you can. Talk to your party about becoming a precinct committee officer, find out what local elected positions exist and run for office. We need people who aren't greedy fucks running for office.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


On Friday, the Supreme Court sharply limited the regulatory authority of federal agencies, upending 40 years of legal precedent in a ruling with broad implications for the environment.

As our Times colleagues wrote, environmentalists fear that the decision could lead to hundreds of rules being weakened or eliminated, particularly Environmental Protection Agency limits on air and water pollution, regulations on toxic chemicals, and policies to tackle climate change

Manish Bapna, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council: “The Court’s actions have put at grave risk the foundational safeguards we depend on, and even take for granted, to protect the mainstays of a modern society.

Clean air and water, healthy wildlife and lands; safe food, medicine, workplaces, airplanes, bridges and cars; an economy unhindered by predatory lending, stock fraud and credit card scams.”

Tara Brock, pacific legal director and senior counsel, Oceana: “Unfortunately, any decision that impedes environmental protection will harm Americans’ health and their pocketbook.

Bapna said that new Biden administration rules, including measures that regulate emissions from cars and trucks, had been written in anticipation that the Supreme Court would roll back Chevron.
