The EPA just gave fossil fuel companies the right to dump
poisons all over Native American tribal lands.

As if the U.S. hasn't already done enough to take away
rights from Native American tribes, Trump's Environmental "Protection"
Agency (EPA) is currently in the process of ripping away even more rights.
Fossil fuel corporations operating in Oklahoma were frustrated with tribes'
abilities to place restrictions on how much they could pollute — so they
petitioned the state governor, J. Kevin Stitt, and the EPA to step in. In
response, Trump's cronies revoked tribes' ability to oversee environmental
regulation on their own lands. Now, polluters have expanded bandwith to
pollute and dump toxic waste with impunity.
Dirty-energy corporations have now gotten everything they
wanted: the freedom to dump poisonous waste — including chemicals like lead,
asbestos, glyphosate, and more — on Native American lands, while leaving
tribes to do all the clean-up. They've gained protection for large-scale
factory farms, as well as their resulting pollution from farm run-off. And,
of course, they have increased ability to frack on tribal land, subjecting
Native Americans to dangerously contaminated air and water. This is horrific
and cruel. We've already taken so much of Native Americans' lands away from
them. We can't also remove their rights to steward what land they do have
left. Sign the petition to tell the EPA it must revert environmental
regulatory control back to the Native American tribes that live on these
lands!
Thank you for all that you do,
Miranda B.

P.S. Trump's friends have infantilized Native American
tribes by voiding their environmental sovereignty in order to cater to oil
and gas companies. Sign the petition to stand with these tribes!
