U.S (NATIVE ORGANIZERS ALLIANCE) : Protect Native communities from pollution.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Friend, 

 

 

We’ve fought to block fossil fuel projects like the Dakota Access Pipeline, which would harm all of our communities all along the Missouri River and sacred places of Tribal nations.

If the U.S. actually fulfilled our treaties, we would have co-stewardship of our lands. We would lead the struggle to protect the land for all. While we work toward this goal, there are other ways to make sure the U.S. government stops approving polluting projects that poison Indigenous communities.

New legislation, the Cumulative Impacts Act, would require regulators to take into account the amount of pollution a community already experiences before approving new polluting facilities. If passed, this would mean that the EPA would deny permits unless the applicant can demonstrate a reasonable certainty of no harm to the community or vulnerable groups. 

 

 

Please add your name today to demonstrate your support for the Cumulative Impacts Act, new environmental justice legislation that would protect Indigenous communities from dangerous fossil fuel projects.
