Governor Brown: Ban Fracking in California Now

It is time for Governor Jerry Brown to ban fracking in California.

Why is this important?

Governor Cuomo of New York just declared a ban on fracking. Howard Zucker, the acting New York State Health Commissioner, said a recently released scientific study found that there were "significant public health risks" associated with fracking, including water contamination and air pollution.

It is time for Governor Jerry Brown to take the same action and ban fracking in California now.
