Letters in Post-Bulletin Strongly Favor Moratorium. How to spread the word

  How to submit your letter as a comment if it was unpublished:

     

We did it!  We let the Rochester Post-Bulletin know that citizens want Gov. Dayton to enact a two year moratorium on frac sand mining in southeast Minnesota. Now let’s spread the message wider. 

The letters poured into the Rochester Post-Bulletin calling for a two year moratorium on frac sand mining.  Of the twenty-one printed all but one were in favor of a moratorium or ban! Read them here:  Your Turn: Should Dayton impose moratorium on frac sand mines? 

How to  spread the message wider.

1.       If they did not print your letter. Go online and enter it as a comment on the page. We know that many, many letters did not get printed.

2.       Email the link to the Governor and your state legislators with a short note along these lines: “It’s clear that southeast Minnesotans know that frac sand mining is bad for our community and want a moratorium.. Southeast Minnesota needs protections NOW but state regulations are over a year away from being implemented. Please, take the time to read the letters printed in the Rochester Post-Bulletin on the issue here: http://www.postbulletin.com/opinion/your-turn-should-dayton-impose-moratorium-on-frac-sand-mines/article_255aadfa-ef5f-596f-a297-18e33ba2e0dc.html. ”
