We are asking Governor Walz, Senator Klobuchar, Senator Smith, all of Minnesota’s Congressional representatives and policymakers  to protect Minnesotans and our environment from “bomb trains” and the irresponsible transport of oil.

Once again, greedy,unethical companies seek to use our state as a transit point for their bomb trains filled with oil.

Canadian Pacific Railway’s Canadian crude cargo trains run on a main rail line right through the Twin Cities. As many as 15 to 20 of these volatile trains will run through our state on their way to Texas each month.

That’s 15 to 20 chances of a major environmental disaster. Even Enbridge, who brought us Line 3, thinks trains are unsafe! Yet Canadian Pacific doesn’t care. They'll stop at nothing to ship their oil bombs through our state and other states,putting at great risk the people, wildlife and the water.

Please add your voice in solidarity against Canadian Pacific and their partners. We must demand our politicians acknowledge our voices and protect us all and our environment. We must act directly by joining each other in the streets to show these companies that Minnesota is not theirs to abuse at will.
