Because this SHOULD NOT be a partisan issue. It’s common sense.

Need to do community service hrs, 30

I think we need to act now to slow climate change. Fossil fuels need to stay in the ground while we create new jobs in renewable engery! No reason to put our Lakes in danger!!
Pamela Perry pledged support 2019-12-15 19:27:09 -0500

It is the absolute right thing to do!
Mindy Binsfeld pledged support via TC350 2019-12-15 18:50:51 -0500

It’s time to put the environment above corporate profits and commit to renewable energies.

The placement of this pipe in the Straits of Mackinac is just too risky.
William Beatty pledged support 2019-12-15 18:44:38 -0500

I love our Great Lakes. It’s our drinking water! A spill would be catastrophic. These are the same people who messed up the Kalamazoo River. Line 5 is almost as old as I am, nothing lasts forever. So far we’ve been lucky.
Pamela Kirkham pledged support 2019-12-15 17:55:57 -0500

My drinking water and livelihood as an artist who depends on tourist dollars is threatened. Is there a way I can use my water paintings to help? To see my work, go to https://www.pamkirkham.com and click on the TRANSITIONAL button to see water related pieces;.

Participate in the Day of Action for the Great Lakes to call for action to shut down Line 5. Building a tunnel for Line 5 is not a solution to protect the Great Lakes or the climate. https://www.oilandwaterdontmix.org/day_of_action_for_the_great_lakes?recruiter_id=50470

We don't get our precious waters back if we don't protect them. They will be lost, damaged for generations if not altered forever if we have an oil spill. I'm deeply worried that we will act too late.

Because I love the Great Lakes
Water is life!

I want the life-giving waters of the Great Lakes to be clean and unsullied by oil. The lakes are the jewel of Michigan, and the envy of the world. We must fight to protect them.
Mary Ann Davis pledged support 2019-12-15 16:27:45 -0500

If near my home area.

I have a sign in my yard, I attended the protest in Washington DC in February with the Sierra club's midnight ride from Michigan a few years ago.

I feel strongly about this issue. I went to Duluth when asked and continue to pledge support, especially for my indigenous friends.

Enbridge’s track record in Michigan with a major prior river spill shows the clear and present danger of this foreign company putting profit before environment.

Heidi Coffman pledged support 2019-12-15 13:37:14 -0500

Enbridge cannot be trusted to protect our most precious resource. Their first priority is their bottom line, which they have proved with their irresponsible actions repeatedly.

I believe line 5 should be shut down because water is life! The Great Lakes are OUR waters, OUR GRANDKIDS WATERS! Not these big CORPORATIONS that put PROFITS BEFORE PEOPLE!

I grew up close to Lake St Clair and we have a summer place on Lake Michigan, but even without those two things, we’re deeply attached to the Lakes. We now live in Illinois, and this campaign should reach into northern Illinois, especially Chicago.
Willie Jones Jr. pledged support 2019-12-15 11:39:40 -0500

Is there anything planned for the Traverse City, MI. area?
