Unraveling decades of progress in safeguarding our nation
* Despite such painful lessons of [the Big Spill],
we find ourselves once again
hurtling toward disaster. The [saboteur in chief]'s personnel and
programmatic cuts at science, environmental and safety agencies, and
the wholesale rollback of environmental regulations, threaten to
unravel decades of progress in safeguarding our nation. These actions
aren't just misguided — they're a dangerous rejection of the hard-won
knowledge gained from former crises and a gamble we cannot afford to
take.*
