Kamala doesn't need to promise to ban fracking to win Pennsylvania. quite the contrary!

according to all the polls i've seen, a slight majority in Pennsylvania are AGAINST fracking. they know it causes earthquakes and cancer especially among kids!

Several years ago, a company sent flyers to everyone in our area offering $1,000/acre for fracking licenses. Our entire town rejected the offer but a woman we know several towns away accepted the offer. She has close to 400 acres so she cashed out for the $400K THEN sold her property and moved!

Our house is on the north slope of a mountain. There cannot be any development uphill so our well water is unadulterated.

PA and Michigan are the states to watch Election Day.

The EPA dropped many fracking regulations so fracking now has fewer rules to keep communities safer. NM ozone levels keep increasing due to Permian Basin fracking -

A few days ago, Bernalillo County was under a high ozone alert.
