Mothers, grandmothers, friends and allies, *Your voices matter!* - Please help us to *STOP* the Re-Powering of the Cayuga Power Plant with fracked gas!!! <http://www.ithaca.com/news/tompkins_county/lansing-power-plant-to-re-power-with-natural-gas/article_a119c6e6-7e0c-11e8-8e81-9b84140f4ca3.html> We have new information about the proposed re-powering plan and none of it is good: Step 1: Convert one burner to gas. 25-60 trucks delivering gas each day. Step 2: Convert the second burner to gas. Simple math says that means 50-120 trucks delivering gas each day. Step 3: Apply for a permit to build a pipeline. Yes, another pipeline!

Together we can stop this and preserve a livable climate for all children, but for that to happen, we need to show up.

If you think that Governor Cuomo should walk his talk and stop the proliferation of fracked gas in New York, please join our #CuomoWalkTheTalk #OffFossilFuels #StopNYinFRACKstructure campaign <http://ny.mothersoutfront.org/nys_gas_infrastructure>: Call Cuomo EVERY Monday [image: 36189042_1943746205659374_8995289091385851904_o.jpg] Every Monday we feature a different gas infrastructure fight. Governor Cuomo is feeling the heat because of our calls, Tweets, and the "Cuomo Walk the Talk mass action in April <http://ny.mothersoutfront.org/r?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stargazette.com%2Fstory%2Fopinion%2F2018%2F05%2F10%2Fturn-time-step-climate-change%2F34739495%2F&e=148c3494092d069089271eff23649315&utm_source=mothersoutfrontny&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=ppc_elmira_toxic_site&n=19>.
