We are appealing to you as citizens of the United States who believe serious wrongs are being committed in the state of Pennsylvania with regard to Marcellus Shale drilling.  We believe the governor and advocates for this industry are working in direct conflict with the President's order to the EPA and Department of Energy to develop this source of energy responsibly and in an environmentally safe manner.  In fact, we believe the governor has conspired with the natural gas industry to violate our rights as promised by the U.S. and Pennsylvania Constitutions. In view of the fact that residents of the state of Pennsylvania have no means within the state to challenge this administration (all agencies charged with protecting citizen rights are directed by the governor’s appointees), it could be said that Pennsylvania is fast becoming a police state for the benefit of the natural gas industry.  In addition, actions being taken by this administration violate the rights of citizens outside the Commonwealth’s boundaries. We ask that you take it upon yourself to investigate corruption at all levels of Pennsylvania state government, particularly in the governor’s office and the Department of Environmental Protection.
