Posted In: News, TransCanada Pipeline, Obama
Last Wednesday, President Obama made the monumental announcement that he is denying TransCanada's permit request to build the Keystone XL export pipeline. We first want to say thank you to all the farmers, ranchers, urbanites, treehuggers, grandmas, students, artists, business owners and everyone in between who made this happen. All of your work writing letters, sending emails, calling, getting arrested, surrounding the Governor's Mansion, and testifying at State Department hearings led to this right decision for our country, land and water.
To sign the card, please fill out the form below.
President Obama's decision is a clear sign that he has heard Nebraskans and has our backs when it comes to protecting our land, water, and health. We want to show the president that we have his back too and that we support his decision. We're sending the poster below to the White House with the names of Nebraskans who want to say "Thank You" to the President (sort of like a giant Hallmark card).

suz luebbe - Thanks Jane, Malinda, & Ben!! I truly feel the officials from the state dept mtg in Atkinson really felt humbled and moved by what the citizens sayed to them and it feels like they are standing by us too at this time. It's nice to know even in D.C there are still nice people that are not entirely corrupt and have common sense. Go Huskers!!

Don Kimball - Just saw your spokesperson on Democracy Now. Good job beating Big Oil! Jane Kleeb nice job promoting the ranching industry. Oil is bad for the environment, but so is cattle ranching! Please don't promote the corporate ranchers who devastate the land, poison the water and kill of the wildlife!
