URGENT: The Pennsylvania General Assembly has passed dangerous carbon-capture bill SB 831. The House voted 127-75 in favor of the bill, and the Senate concurred by a 37-12 vote. The bill now goes to Governor Josh Shapiro for his signature or veto. It is imperative that the governor veto this dangerous bill and instead support legislation protecting individuals’ property rights while pushing back against eminent domain and carbon-capture pipelines.
Senate Bill No. 831 (SB 831) is titled the “Carbon Capture and Sequestration Act.” If enacted, it would create guidelines for carbon-capture sequestration technology in Pennsylvania.
As intended by the General Assembly, creating such guidelines would encourage the development of carbon-capture — including the construction of carbon-capture pipelines.
However, carbon-capture pipelines are a dangerous step toward the United Nations’ Agenda 2030, and significantly threaten private-property rights. Furthermore, such technology is premised on the false and dangerous notions that carbon is harmful for humanity, is contributing to harmful “climate change,” and must be severely reduced.
Carbon-capture pipelines also threaten property rights as companies frequently seek to confiscate productive farmland through eminent domain in order to build those pipelines. Furthermore, several of the companies and investors behind these projects are foreign-based and have troubled histories.
Additionally, the carbon-capture pipelines are closely connected to the UN’s Agenda 2030 “sustainable development” scheme to eliminate private property and totally reshape society in the name of fighting “climate change.” The pipelines also are associated with serious safety concerns, and have been shown to be a poor investment. And if all this isn’t enough, they are tied to the “Environmental, Social, and Governance” (ESG) agenda.
Contact Governor Josh Shapiro and urge him to veto SB 831. Instead of pass such dangerous legislation, legislators should strongly stand up for property rights — and against Agenda 2030.
Although we provide a way to easily email legislators, we know from long experience that it takes a lot more interaction with your legislators to get your point across than that provided by emails alone.
That's why we provide an easy way not only to email them, but to contact them by phone, tweet, and even video message them.
