On today’s show, host Esty Dinur is joined by two legal experts from Earthjustice–Andre Segura and Stefanie Tsosie–to talk about the Trump administration’s attacks on the environment.
They discuss the reconciliation bill that was passed yesterday and what this billionaire’s bill will mean for the environment. Segura says that this bill is a huge giveaway to the oil and gas industry and will make it easier to drill and transport oil and gas, impacting ecosystems the world over. Increased drilling in the Alaskan Arctic, Gulf of Mexico, and beyond will further exacerbate the climate crisis.
Tsosie says that this bill is just a continuation of what has been an ongoing onslaught on the environment, that includes issues of pipelines like Line 5 in Wisconsin. She debunks the myth that the US is experiencing an energy emergency–an argument commonly made by conservatives to support their drilling projects. Meanwhile the administration is cancelling clean energy projects left and right. Tsosie says that “you can’t put the oil back in the pipeline.”
Andre Segura is a Vice President of Litigation for Earthjustice and is based in Houston, Texas. Andre has been at the front lines of some of the most significant battles for civil rights and racial justice across the country.
Stefanie Tsosie is a member of the Navajo Nation and a Senior Attorney in the Earthjustice Tribal Partnerships Program based in Seattle, WA. Stefanie continues to litigate on behalf of tribal clients, most recently the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa in their fight against the Line 5 Pipeline, and works to develop partnerships with tribal clients across the country.
