What we need now is more protection and not less. --- Anne Rolfes Louisiana Bucket Brigade
Our nation has a reduced need for fuel right now. To claim
we need boosted production during this crisis is manipulative. The Trump
administration has relaxed rules on enforcement and compliance in the
petrochemical industry, based on a letter from the API. This letter reportedly was drafted in 2019. The world powers of Russia and Saudi Arabia started
their price war before the Louisiana Stay at Home order. The value of the
products from the petrochemical plants were already diminished. Not complying
with the clean air act worsens the air quality, which greatly affects respiratory
health. Respiratory health is already under attack by the COVID19 pandemic.
These plants could step up, be a good neighbor, and adhere to the existing
regulations.
