URGENT!

Tell your Senators to Oppose S.5653 and protect community voices and historic places. For sixty years the National Historic Preservation Act has given communities a say before federally funded projects harm the places they love – it's why the Survivor Stairs still stand at the World Trade Center. Now a permitting bill in the Senate, S. 5653, would gut it. Many federally funded projects could skip review entirely. Harm that doesn’t involve a bulldozer wouldn’t count. And federal agencies could decide on their own that preservation doesn’t matter. We can build faster without bulldozing our history. Tell your Senators: fix it before you pass it. Link in bio!
