NO OIL DRILLING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS SAY L.A. RESIDENTS

Take Action Now to Support STAND-LA And End Neighborhood Drilling

Over 200,000 Angelenos are at risk every day living within 2,500 feet of an active oil well. We’ve waited two years for the City of LA just to release a report on the possibility of a common-sense human health and safety buffer ordinance that would phase out toxic oil drilling and protect the health of our communities and climate.

After experiencing an unacceptable two-year delay from the City of LA in our efforts to end dangerous oil drilling in neighborhoods, we've just launched a multi-pronged escalation starting to raise the pressure on City Council President Herb Wesson, Mayor Garcetti and the entire City Council. We really need your support in amplifying the voices of impacted residents and getting the City to take action.

As civil rights icon Fannie Lou Hamer famously said:

“We are sick and tired of being sick and tired.”
