WATER IS LIFE. KEEP THE OIL IN THE SOIL.
Oil fracking in the Bakken Basin of North Dakota threatens groundwater with chemical wastes, women’s safety with
huge “man camps,” public safety with exploding oil trains, and our climate with greenhouse gases. As Billy Frank Jr. said,
"oil and water don’t mix, and neither do oil and fish....It’s not a matter of whether spills will happen, it’s a matter of when.”
STAND WITH STANDING ROCK AND QUINAULT.
Native nations are in the forefront of stopping the Bakken oil monster. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is protecting the
Missouri River from the Dakota Access Pipeline, and is facing heavily armed security with militarized vehicles, tear gas, and
attack dogs. The Quinault Indian Nation is leading the fight to protect our coast from the proposed Grays Harbor oil
terminal, where 44,000 people are in the oil train Blast Zone (including 11,000 kids).
STOP OIL FRACKING SANDS AT THE PORT OF OLYMPIA.
Our public Port is complicit in oil fracking by importing fracking sands from China. These ceramic “proppants” prop open
bedrock cracks as water and chemicals extract oil. The Port loads the 1.5-ton proppant sacks on trains to the Bakken
Basin in North Dakota, and there is a new shipment awaiting multiple trains this month. We do not want our Port to
contribute to carbon pollution, water contamination, or an “oil war” against Indigenous nations.
