The Supreme Court just removed a stay of construction on the disastrous Mountain Valley Pipeline — allowing the project to move forward while other court cases continue.
The best way to fight back is to renew your LCV membership today. Right now, all it takes is $5. Because this fight is so important, a major donor is triple-matching every contribution today only >>
Friend, here’s what you need to know: For nearly a decade, the dirty energy industry has been trying to run a natural gas pipeline 300 miles across Virginia and West Virginia, cutting through the Jefferson National Forest and crossing thousands of waterways and wetlands.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline will have devastating consequences — not only for the environment, but also for the many communities along its path whose health will be jeopardized by air and water pollution from the dirty fracked gas.
But this isn’t the end of the fight against powerful fossil fuel interests. What happens next will depend on folks like you. Just like its well-known brother, the Keystone XL Pipeline, this pipeline has already faced a slew of legal challenges, and some are still ongoing.
AND, the more we fight to strengthen environmental protections, the less viable these pipelines become. Right now, LCV is pushing the Biden administration to finalize strong climate pollution standards for fossil-fueled power plants. If we can do that, ultimately these pipelines end up being an even worse investment.
We will continue to fight disastrous fossil fuel projects like the Mountain Valley Pipeline every step of the way. But the only way we can run a winning campaign to cut climate emissions from power plants and the oil and gas industry is with your immediate help.
Help LCV fight back against this blatant giveaway to Big Polluters. The quickest way to help is to renew your LCV membership while a special 3X match will triple your impact instantly. Even $5 can make a difference. We need you in this fight, Friend >>
On the Mountain Valley Pipeline and other critical environmental issues, LCV is leading the fight to rally activists across the country to generate hundreds of thousands of public comments, show up to public hearings with federal agencies, and influence decision makers.
But we need the support of our members to put our plans into action.
Friend, will you make an emergency gift today to renew your membership and help raise the $50,000 we need to mount a response and keep our campaigns running strong? Today, every gift will be triple matched — so please, don’t wait.
Onward,
Gene Karpinski
