We strongly encourage President Obama to do the right thing and say "NO" to the Keystone XL Pipeline and big oil interests. As voters we are watching this issue closely and his decision on this matters very much.
The Keystone XL pipeline will carry toxic tar sands oil 1,700 miles from Alberta, Canada through the middle of the US heartland on its way to the Gulf. The pipeline would cross the massive Ogallala aquifer, which supplies drinking water in 8 US states, and irrigation for millions of acres of farmland that supply the nation’s food.
We can not allow the foreign corporation TransCanada to jeopardize America's drinking water in the name of profits for private industry. The pipeline would keep our country addicted to this unsustainable and highly polluting fossil fuel even longer.
