Stop Approving Fracked Gas Pipelines

On October 19, the Federal Energy Regulator Commission approved the GTN Xpress fracked gas pipeline expansion, which will cut through Washington, Oregon and Idaho.

Elected officials are pushing back on this disastrous plan.

“It’s just inconsistent with what the West Coast is doing in trying to develop a clean energy economy,” Washington Governor Jay Inslee.

"The expanded pipeline will cause $8.8 billion in damages, and contribute 1.9 million metric tons of carbon per year in pollution to the Pacific Northwest," Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley pointed out. "That is the equivalent to adding 644,000 gasoline powered cars to the road each year," he continued.
