Supreme Court Set to Decide if Pipelines Can Cleave Appalachian Trail
In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Maury Johnson, executive member of the POWHR Coalition, to talk about the legal battle being waged before the Supreme Court between backers and opponents of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline, why the case hinges on questions of jurisdiction over the Appalachian Trail, how his family and community continue to be negatively impacted by pipeline construction, how gas fracking has led to elevated rates of cancer, birth defects and contaminated water in rural areas, and why individual gas consumers are getting stuck with the bill for all this.
