Keep the Pressure On: Demand that President Biden and Secretary of Defense Austin permanently shut down the U.S. Navy's leaking jet fuel tanks in Hawai'i. |
Dear friends,
Did you hear the important news?
On January 10, the Navy agreed to submit a plan for defueling the massive Red Hill jet fuel tanks which poisoned a main water source on O‘ahu.
While the US Navy has publicly stated they will comply with the mandate from the Department of Health to defuel the Red Hill fuel storage tanks, we must remain vigilant. Until the President and Secretary of Defense declare that the fuel tanks will be immediately and PERMANENTLY closed, the possibility of the Department of Defense filing a lawsuit on the ridiculous grounds of "national security" to have the tanks repaired and reopened is a strong possibility.
That means we have to continue to support the incredible work from groups like the O‘ahu Water Protectors, Hawai'i Peace and Justice, Kanaeokana, Sierra Club of Hawai‘i, the community of O’ahu, and people like YOU who signed on to this petition.
➡️ Let's remain vigilant against any attempts made by the Navy to evade responsibility for poisoning the O'ahu community.

✅ Click here to tweet at the Office of the Secretary of the Navy, letting them know people are watching!
The Navy has publicly stated that they will defuel the Red Hill fuel storage tanks. It’s up to us to hold them to that commitment and push to PERMANENTLY CLOSE Red Hill.
Let's #ShutDownRedHill and help deliver a HUGE victory for people over destructive U.S. militarism!
Towards peace,
Ann Wright
P.S. Read my latest articles about the military flushing the contaminated water, and a report from the State of Hawai'i hearing officer that calls the Red Hill tanks an "imminent peril."
