How to Contact Your Representative About Climate Change Policy

The Issue

What's at Stake

The United States has reversed course on climate policy in 2025-2026, withdrawing from the Paris Agreement again, rolling back EPA emissions regulations, and moving to eliminate clean energy tax credits passed under the Inflation Reduction Act. These reversals would significantly increase U.S. greenhouse gas emissions at a moment when the scientific consensus demands rapid decarbonization to avoid the worst climate impacts.

Congress controls climate policy through legislation, appropriations, and oversight. Your representatives vote on whether the U.S. acts on climate or continues to retreat from its commitments.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What climate policy changes are happening in 2026?

The U.S. has re-withdrawn from the Paris Agreement, EPA vehicle and power plant emissions rules are being rolled back, and clean energy tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act are being targeted for elimination. These changes would significantly increase U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.

Can Congress protect climate policy from executive rollbacks?

Yes. Congress can pass legislation to codify emissions rules, protect IRA clean energy credits, and establish climate goals that are harder to reverse by executive action. Congressional appropriations also fund EPA enforcement capacity.

Does calling about climate make a difference?

Yes. Climate calls have become one of the highest-volume constituent contact issues, particularly among younger Americans and communities experiencing extreme weather. Sustained pressure has moved members to support clean energy legislation in previous sessions.
