No Pipeline Statewide Week of Action: Gov Brown, Shut it Down!

Oregonians are uniting for a statewide week of action to ask Governor Kate Brown to take stand against the Pacific Connector Pipeline and Jordan Cove LNG Export Terminal while she joins world leaders in Germany for the United Nations Climate Talks (COP).

Even though Governor Brown is going to Germany to talk about her commitment to climate, she still has not come out against Jordan Cove which would be the largest source of climate pollution in the state.

Standing up to Jordan Cove will determine whether or not Governor Brown is the climate champion our state needs. Despite the new federal administration, we can stop this pipeline again if Governor Brown and her state agencies deny vital permits that Pembina needs to start building.

Climate Champions Don't Permit Dirty Fracked Gas Terminals

Without action on the Jordan Cove Project, Governor Brown’s climate grandstanding is little more than an attempt to win environmental credibility without having to make a hard decision that might cost her some political points with large corporate donors and the building and construction trades. The climate doesn't care about the politics of triangulation, horse-trading, or campaign contributions.
