Republican
Supreme Court Justices and the Republican
Congress gave the TransCanada oil company the green light to seize land from Nebraska property owners under the authority of
eminent domain!?!?
Three Nebraska landowners filed a
lawsuit against their state’s Department of Environmental Quality, treasurer
and governor against TransCanada’s Keystone XL pipeline being drilled under their land, but a majority of Republican Supreme Court Justices decided against the
farmers’ concerns.
The Republican
Congress voted to give Keystone their stamp
of approval for Republican Supreme Court justices’ approval (Now you know why Republican congressional
lawmakers are blocking the nominations of non-activists
judges put forth by the President. Keep count - anti- voting rights decisions, anti-immigration reform decisions, anti-affordable health care decisions, anti women's reproductive rights decisions - guns everywhere decisions!)
President Obama stated that he
would veto the Republican’s Keystone attack on
his executive authority, and he did.
Here are just a few of many
problems with the Keystone pipeline. More are provided within the Sources below.
- Keystone pipeline dirty oil will be funneled through America, solely, for TransCanada to export outside of the United States, (See Keystone pipeline links below.)
- Contrary to the false Republican talking point of 600,000 jobs, at best, the Keystone Pipeline will only create 35 permanent jobs, (See 35 permanent job link below.)
- TransCanada pipeline leaks in Canada killed every plant and tree in the leak’s path. (See TransCanada pipeline leak links below.)
- Why would Republican justices and Republican lawmakers want to give land - owned by Americans - to a foreign oil company!?!?
The Republican Congress is
planning to hold a vote to override the President’s veto...
Help save America’s farmlands
from TransCanada tar sands!
