OPINION

YVONNE T. RODRIGUEZ, Justice.

Sierra Club appeals the denial of its motion to dismiss the claims asserted against it by Andrews Industrial Foundation, Andrews Chamber of Commerce, and Andrews County, Texas (Appellees). In a single issue, Sierra Club contends that Appellees’ claims for declaratory judgment and tortious interference with a contract should have been dismissed pursuant to the Texas Citizens’ Participations Act (Act). Concluding that Sierra Club is correct, we reverse and render, in part, and reverse and remand, in part.
