WHAT: Join Moms Clean Air Force, elected officials, and local advocates on February 13 at 10:30am MST for a press conference to denounce the EPA’s reckless decision to revoke the Endangerment Finding. The Endangerment Finding provides the legal foundation for EPA regulations that protect people in the U.S. from some of the largest sources of climate pollution, including power plants and transportation. This repeal is an attempt to leave EPA powerless to limit the pollution that is heating up the planet and supercharging dangerous extreme weather. Speakers will talk about how this decision threatens the health of our families—especially our children—and drives up costs at a time when the prices of health care and insurance premiums are already soaring.

- Pita Juarez, Arizona Field Organizer, Moms Clean Air Force and EcoMadres
- Kirsten Engel, Chief, Environmental Protection Unit, Arizona Attorney General’s Office
- Arizona State Representative Mariana Sandoval (AZ LD23)
