Mississippi environmental justice advocates, organizers & experts from SELC, Property Rights & Pipelines Center, MS Sierra Club and American Lung Association will share information about these proposed gas pipelines, the threats they pose to Mississippians, who stands to profit & who would bear all the risk. We’ll take your questions & talk about ways to fight back!
