Parnell’s veto of SB 305 means giving away billions

Letter to the Editor by Anna von Reitz, Anchorage Daily News July 11, 2010

The Parnell Administration is giving away $20 billion dollars of our money to the oil industry. That’s what Sean’s veto of Senate Bill 305 allows. Where’s the media when you need them? Sharing this year’s best salmon recipes?

Meanwhile, APP is attempting to calm fears that TAPS will give out before we have a gas pipeline established, by saying TransCanada can build a pipeline to Valdez under AGIA.

That’s like saying Ford CAN build a truck.

It’s meaningless when the real issue is building a gas pipeline before the oil pipeline gives out and 85 percent of our economy hits the skids.

These men deserve to be ousted, and we deserve a gas pipeline that is big enough to save our bacon, constructed in time to do so.

We need the All Alaska Gas Pipeline and we need to build it now. No more standing around waiting for the oil bust. We must take action to save our economy.
