Why This Matters
In the midst of an unprecedented global pandemic, Enbridge Inc. is to rushing the construction of a massive fracked gas compressor station in environmental justice neighborhoods in the Fore River Basin of eastern Massachusetts.
Fracked gas compressor stations are dirty and contribute to additional air pollution in a community already overburdened with industrial air pollution. It isn't just reckless to push construction of a massive fracked gas compressor station in the middle of a crisis like this -- it also puts vulnerable workers and environmental justice communities at serious risk from COVID-19
If enough of us raise our voices to call on our officials to protect Massachusetts’s communities, they will be able to lead where the Trump administration hasn't.
