7 million Americans live near oil refineries. That's 7 million people who are denied their right to clean air as they breathe in 20,000 tons of poison each year. Big Oil would rather profit than take the available measures to protect the lives of 7 million Americans.

The EPA is poised to take a huge step in ensuring we have clean air to breath by placing much needed regulations on these refineries. Don't let Big Oil's voice overpower the voices of millions of ailing Americans.

Children living near the Valero refinery in Houston have a 56% greater change of getting leukemia. We know these chemicals cause cancer, but they are still legal. Despite the devastation, oil companies are still allowed to pump thousands of tons of legal poison into our air every year. Support the EPA's regulations to stop big oil from poisoning children.

A toxic soup of carcinogens, neurotoxins, cyanide, arsenic, and lead are traveling into the lungs of millions of Americans. Children are getting their first taste of greed as Big Oil continues to pump poison into the air, just for the sake of money.

Stand with the EPA in this battle again big oil's greed. Make sure that your children aren't exposed to any more toxic air.
