November 30, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Join NCEL and Earthjustice for a panel discussion where we’ll cover: (1) the context and decision of Sackett v. EPA, and (2) what policy options exist to help restore protections for one of the most important ecosystems, to ensure clean water for future generations.
