Washington must stand up to the Trans Mountain Pipeline

The Trans Mountain tar sands pipeline expansion would increase dangerous tanker traffic through our shared waters, and threaten indigenous sovereignty, a vibrant fishing industry, and the endangered Southern Resident orcas.

This June, Canadian officials will decide whether or not to approve this disastrous proposal.

The proposed Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion would bring more heavy, sinking oils into our shared waters of the Salish Sea. Heavy tar sands oils sink when spilled and are virtually impossible to clean up. This project poses an unacceptable threat to Washington's shoreline communities and increasingly vulnerable marine ecosystem. Washingtonians must stand up to protect our waters and communities from these uniquely dangerous, heavy oils.

Washington has too much at risk and we need to speak up now. Tell the Canadian government TODAY that Washingtonians stand in opposition to the Trans Mountain Pipeline.
