Pennsylvanians Against Fracking Calls on Governor to Halt New Permitting and Help Impacted Pennsylvanians

Harrisburg, PA: A new study that linked fracking to increased hospitalization rates in heavily fracked areas strengthens the case for an immediate statewide moratorium on fracking, says Pennsylvanians Against Fracking. This research from the University of Pennsylvania and Columbia University was published this week in PLOS ONE. Pennsylvanians Against Fracking urges Governor Wolf to stop accepting any new fracking permits, and that a moratorium against fracking in the state is one of the only things that can be done to protect the health and safety of Pennsylvanians who live near fracking operations.
