Looking back on 2025 is, well, challenging. It was an incredibly difficult year for clean air, climate stability, and children’s health. But our 2025 Annual Report tells a remarkable story of grit and determination in the face of unprecedented and reckless attacks from the federal government.
Together, we fought hard to protect our children’s health, and we continue to stand united. Thank you for standing with us! Our Annual Report will give you hope for the year ahead and is well worth a look.

Here are a few highlights from 2025, a year of record-breaking engagement with Moms’ campaigns, painful setbacks on federal air and climate protections, and inspiring state-level wins.
- In early December, Moms launched a campaign to hold EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin accountable for his utter failure since his confirmation in January to execute EPA’s core mission of protecting human health and the environment—and it’s resonating. We have already collected 20,000 signatures on our petition calling for Zeldin’s resignation.
- Methane rules work. Moms joined New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham in September to celebrate methane pollution data that showed oil and gas operators on the New Mexico side of the Permian Basin are releasing methane at half the rate of operators next door in Texas. And it’s no coincidence: New Mexico has strong state methane rules.
- We also continued to educate the public and our elected officials about the dangers of “advanced recycling”—a misleading term coined by the petrochemical industry for the practice of burning plastic. We celebrated wins as plans for two proposed “advanced recycling” facilities were cancelled after Moms, partners, and local communities turned up the pressure—Alterra in Pennsylvania and Resynergi in California.

We have so much work ahead of us. But we’ve also never been more ready.
