Sign the petition for a statewide ban on fracking in NY!

Please sign our petition below and then write in your own comments to Gov. Cuomo on why you think he should ban fracking in New York.

Dear Governor Cuomo,

We the undersigned citizens of New York demand a permanent ban on the natural gas extraction process known as hydraulic fracturing. We call on you to:

1. Protect the health of ALL New Yorkers.
2. Invest in energy solutions that will create jobs for New York.
3. Stand up to the special interests of big oil and gas corporations.

We need your leadership to protect New York from this attack on our health, environment, economy, and values. It's time to enact a statewide ban on fracking.
