ACT NOW: Congress shouldn't cater to corporate polluters
ACT NOW: Congress shouldn't cater to corporate polluters: Having faced setback after setback on their reckless Atlantic Coast Pipeline, Dominion Energy, our state's biggest corporate polluter, has its sights set on Washington, D.C. for help to move its misguided project forward.
After running afoul of the courts for attempting to cross the Appalachian Trail with the ACP, Dominion needs an act of Congress for its project to move forward – and they're spending millions of dollars lobbying in D.C. We can’t let that happen. This is why we need you to reach out to your members of Congress NOW to get in front of anything that Dominion might try to ram through.
If built, this pipeline would severely impact our environment and we’d be on the hook for paying for the $7.5 billion boondoggle. Contact your representatives today and help stop Dominion’s end-run around the courts!
