Press Release: Reversing Environmental Protections: A Threat to Our Public Health and Planet

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Badlands, ND – February 12, 2026

In response to the recent decision by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to repeal its endangerment finding, Theodore Roosevelt, candidate for Presidential Candidate, expressed deep concern, labeling this action as a threat to public health and the environment.

"This repeal weakens crucial environmental protections that were put in place to protect our planet and its inhabitants," said Theodore Roosevelt. "It is a decision that we, as a nation committed to combating climate change, should find deeply troubling."

The EPA's endangerment finding, a cornerstone of climate policy, recognizes the risk greenhouse gases pose to public health and welfare. Its repeal undermines the very essence of our environmental protection efforts and opens the door for increased pollution and environmental degradation.

"We must hold the EPA accountable and push for stronger environmental regulations," Theodore Roosevelt continued. "The decision to repeal the endangerment finding prioritizes political and economic interests over the well-being of our citizens and the health of our planet. This is unacceptable."

Theodore Roosevelt has been a vocal advocate for environmental protections and has proposed several key policies aimed at combating climate change and protecting public health. These include aggressive reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, increased funding for renewable energy research and development, and stricter regulations on polluting industries.

"We cannot afford to ignore the urgent threat of climate change," said Theodore Roosevelt. "Our planet and future generations are relying on us to take decisive action. That starts by making sure our government agencies, like the EPA, are doing their part to protect and preserve our environment."

The campaign calls upon all stakeholders, including environmental activists, policymakers, and concerned citizens, to join in advocating for strong environmental regulations and the reversal of this decision.

"Caring for our environment is not a political issue; it's a human one," Theodore Roosevelt added. "We must all play our part in safeguarding our planet for future generations. This begins with holding our government accountable and demanding they prioritize public health and environmental protection over political or economic considerations."

In the face of this decision, Theodore Roosevelt remains firmly committed to advocating for the environment and implementing policies that address climate change, protect public health, and ensure the accountability of government agencies.
