                        That's what my friend Stephanie, who lives in the heart of fracking country in Pennsylvania, had to say about hydraulic fracturing in her community. We're working to ban fracking not only in the communities that are most affected, but also at the national level. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=Gg8tQ0Aa4frTTi9rzxfzCaWyBnawdBhQ">Will you join our effort to stop this dangerous practice?</a></font></span></font><font face="Arial" size="4"><span style="font-size: medium;"><font face="Arial"><br>

                        Stephanie can't wait. There are new reports of fracking-related accidents every day, and recently a fracking well near her community exploded, spewing thousands of gallons of contaminated water onto nearby farms and into waterways. <br>
                        <br>
                        We're building the grassroots movement against fracking, working with people in their communities to pass local ordinances, state legislation and federal legislation. We were the first national group to call for a federal ban on fracking, and we've got boots on the ground in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Colorado and other states where fracking is threatening people's food, water and livelihoods. We need to raise $10,000 by May 6th to launch our new effort to ban fracking. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=5NW3fYpP1rMyrYo2xYR33qWyBnawdBhQ">Can you contribute to stop fracking?</a><br>
