The permitting bill would ease the expansion of extractive industries AND make it harder for communities to fight back. Don't fall for this dirty deal! Call your Senators at 877-796-1949 and tell them to oppose this bill. oilchange.org/blogs/permitti…

Shady tactics from this pipeline company: "It’s like, ‘We’ll put the pipeline just close enough where you don’t have rights. And you can’t say that it’s on the reservation, so, legally, you don’t have the same protections or the same ability to fight it.’" grist.org/energy/in-eastern-…
When desperation meets greed:
This pipeline threatens the safety of our water, air and future on this planet. We do not want our tax dollars going to pay for this destruction.

ALT Proposed 125-mile Constitution Pipeline to receive $42 million in taxpayer funding
ALT The Energy Department said it would use up to $42 million in Defense Production Act funding for a pipeline recently revived after being canceled in 2020. Williams, one of the U.S.’s largest pipeline companies, is behind the proposed 125-mile natural gas pipeline from Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, to Schoharie County, New York. Williams has reported “record first-quarter 2026 results” and a “strong second-quarter 2026,” with a share price 30% higher than last year.

Extreme heat is a public health issue, a workers' rights issue and so much more. Safety regulations are important, but they are only effective if they're enforced and if people know their rights! yaleclimateconnections.org/2…

Extractive industries already enjoy too many giveaways and loopholes. This permitting bill would make it even easier for fossil fuel and AI industries to build out more infrastructure. insideclimatenews.org/news/2…
Antibiotic overuse is rampant on factory farms and this story is a reminder of how it endangers public health in humans. The FDA needs to end this dangerous practice!
