Oil & gas wastewater is still being spread on Pennsylvania roads, and a new DEP "mineral brine" permit could make it easier. Shannon Smith testified at the PA House on Oct. 5. We've appealed the Danylko 6 permit and want a statewide ban. Read our appeal: www.fractracker.org/2026/06/pa-d...

💡As James Hiatt writes in The Washington Post, suing polluters isn’t an “attack on industry.” It’s the only path left for justice when companies put profits over people. 👉 www.washingtonpost.com/.../trump-dc...

A block of text reads:
“If the oil and gas industry truly wanted fewer lawsuits, it would work with communities instead of trying to silence them. And it would listen to regulators instead of trying to get legal safeguards repealed. Instead, these companies are putting their profits over people. Louisiana deserves better.”

If we don’t know what chemicals are poisoning people, how can we protect them? Despite a 2022 law requiring disclosure, 65% of Colorado oil & gas operators still aren’t reporting the chemicals they’re using underground—many of which are hazardous to human health.

💰 $37 million — That’s how much oil & gas well operators could owe in fines for failing to disclose the toxic chemicals they use in Colorado. Enough to fund the annual salaries of 540 teachers. Chevron & its subsidiaries, PDC Energy & Noble Energy, could be on the hook for nearly $20 million alone.

LNG promises "economic benefits," but frontline communities see the truth—higher energy bills, declining property values, and public funds wasted on fossil fuel subsidies instead of clean energy. Who really profits? Not the people. #LNGLies #StopLNG
