Protect sea turtles and shorebirds

U.S. Senators Kay Hagan and Richard Burr recently introduced a bill (S. 2372) that would overturn the National Park Service (NPS) plan to manage beach driving within Cape Hatteras National Seashore. Cape Hatteras is a NC coastal treasure, and a very sensitive region where rare sea turtles and shorebirds nest. The NPS plan ensures responsible vehicle operations in the presence of nesting sea turtles, rare birds, and pedestrians.

NC's Air Toxics Program at risk

Some legislators are taking aim at NC’s important Air Toxics Program, which keeps our communities safe from toxic air pollution. Children, pregnant women and senior citizens are at risk for serious health problems if the air they breathe is contaminated by nearby industrial emissions. The companies requesting that state legislators repeal the program are some of the largest emitters in the state.

Tell Governor Perdue and state legislators to oppose any effort to dismantle the Air Toxics Program:
