Michigan Supreme Court vacates petroleum pipeline Line 5 tunnel permit, remands case for further review bridgemi.com/michigan-env...

In 2010, the Kalamazoo River was devastated by of one of the largest inland oil spills in U.S. history. The pipeline was operated by Enbridge, the very salesmen who just sold Gov. Whitmer a snake oil tunnel ‘solution’ in the Line 5 saga. 🐍🛢️ But we can’t afford another disaster & we’re not buying it.

“This decision gives us another opportunity to honor our treaty rights, protect our waters, and consider the generations who will inherit this place...” “Some things are simply too sacred to be buried beneath a tunnel” #ShutDownLine5 #NoTunnel Act now: act.cleanwater.org/page/195549/...

🎉 THE GREAT LAKES WON TODAY. MISC just vacated the permit for Enbridge's Line 5 oil tunnel — 6 to 1. The oil tunnel has no state siting approval, which is required under federal law. This victory belongs to the Tribes who never stopped fighting: They led. The Court listened. #ShutDownLine5

Blowback from latest DTE outage surfaces on midterm campaign trail

A July 4 weekend power outage affecting 400,000 DTE Energy customers intensifies the political debate over utility accountability.

planetdetroit.org

Consumers Energy connected groups are spending heavily trying to unseat a GOP lawmaker - because of his opposition to data centers. This is why we say we need to get utility money OUT of Michigan politics. Our democracy should NOT be for sale. #MopUpMichigan www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...

Groups tied to Consumers Energy target Michigan data center critic

A GOP lawmaker held a series of subcommittee hearings on the impact of data centers. Now, he's facing a wave of negative TV ads linked to one utility.

Yep, we're pretty f--king pissed. Ask Governor Whitmer if she wants her legacy to be one of protecting our freshwater, or defending Canadian pipeline profit at the expense of our Mackinac Straits and all the lives that rely on that ecosystem. Protect our Great Lakes. #ShutDownLine5
