Urgent: The Bipartisan Effort to Quietly Erode Environmental and Tribal Protections - Natural Causes | iHeart
The Natural Causes podcast episode, hosted by James, warns that the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act — advanced in the Senate on a 73 to 25 vote on 9 November 2026 — would gut the National Environmental Policy Act, the National Historic Preservation Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act. Natalie Segovia of the Water Protector Legal Collective says its Title III would redefine sacred sites and let the Interior Secretary take over noncompliant Tribal Historic Preservation Offices, and she urges listeners to pressure senators before the new Congress is inaugurated in January 2027.
