LNG Resistance: Freedom Works Cancels All Their Upcoming Meetings

From: Columbia River Keepers

Great news today -- FreedomWorks (Lights on Oregon) has canceled all upcoming meetings in Oregon!

After bombarding these meetings with members of our anti-LNG coalition, asking tough questions, and showing this LNG front that we will not allow these LNG propaganda meetings to proceed without our presence felt in the room: that organization has decided to cancel the 7 upcoming meetings scheduled for Oregon.

Thanks to everyone who came to the earlier meetings held in Hood River and Gresham and thanks to everyone who helped coordinate our response to these events!

To all of you who planned to attend one of the upcoming meetings to be held by Lights on Oregon (FreedomWorks) -- please note that they have all been canceled and thank you so much for your willingness to come out and have your voices heard.

These meetings were originally planned to counteract the incredibly effective work that we all are doing on this issue and the fact that they have now been canceled is a testiment to how effective we truly are.

Great work, everyone! - Olivia Schmidt Columbia RiverKeeper oliviariver@gmail.com
