@Planning4LA @CityAttorneyLA just rolled back health protections for the community near the Murphy Drill Site - ignoring the voices of frontline youth & residents urging them to protect their health. We won’t let their voices be ignored. Here is their truth 📢

Redeemer Community Partnership @redeemercp.bsky.social · Jan 14

BREAKING: @Planning4LA & @CityAttorneyLA gave oil company E&B Resources a blank check to buy tens-of-millions of cubic feet of methane to burn in generators at the Murphy Drill Site, near homes & schools. The promise for equal protection under the law were just empty words.

The Power of Persistence tells how LA's frontline communities passed public policy to end neighborhood drilling. It's a story of hope for everyone working to save our common home from BIG OIL. @STAND_LA @LibertyHill @billmckibben @ClimateHuman http://bit.ly/lhfreport

"LA's plan to phase-out oil drilling in the future does not absolve its responsibility to protect residents from the dangers of oil drilling today" @rdeanparks Electrify & enclose the Murphy Drill now!
