Do you know what’s giving you a say in whether ExxonMobil can roll up to your
neighborhood and build an oil refinery? What’s allowing you to provide input on
Chevron’s plan to run a pipeline through your community’s drinking water source?
It’s a law called the National Environmental Policy Act – and YOU can help stop the efforts in Congress to gut this bedrock legislation.
Also called NEPA, the National Environmental Policy Act gives you and me a say
in what polluting projects big companies try to put in our communities. It
requires thorough assessment and time for community input – but new bills in
Congress could fast-track polluting projects and revoke your right to say NO to dirty energy projects. Please, Friend, tell your Congressmembers to OPPOSE any
attempts to gut our bedrock environmental protections!

[[link removed]]If NEPA is weakened, more babies could be breathing toxins from fossil fuel plants. More communities could suffer from contaminated drinking water. In some cases, these are literally life-or-death consequences, Friend. Fossil fuel pollution has been
linked to respiratory illnesses, splitting headaches, and even increased cancer rates!
You have a right to determine what happens in your own neighborhood. Don’t let
Congress take that away from you and give greedy fossil fuel companies the
ability to steamroll community input. Will you send a message to Congress and help us meet our goal of 112 more
signatures from your area before 11:59pm TONIGHT? Preserve
your right to say NO to fossil fuels!
