The Trump Administration is Proposing to Allow Coal Companies to Leave Toxic Waste Sitting in Storage Ponds, where it can Seep into Groundwater and nearby Water Bodies.
This is a Serious Risk, One Coal Ash Spill in Tennessee, in 2008, sent More than 1 Billion Gallons of Waste pouring into a nearby Town. Now, 200 Workers involved in the Clean-Up are facing Brain, Lung, and Skin Cancer.
Currently, 91% of U.S. Coal-Fired Power Plants are already Contaminating Groundwater. And the 6 Million People Living near these Coal-Fired Power Plants are Disproportionately People of Color and Lower-Income People. The Danger here isn't Hypothetical, the Damage is Happening now.
There is 60 days to Mount a Response and Tell the Administration this Change is Unacceptable.
It can sometimes seem like there's a New Attack from Trump every day.
But it takes Money to Build a Campaign.
