We are thrilled to share Governor Kathy Hochul signed A8866/S8357 on Saturday night, banning the use of CO2 for fracking!
The bills expanded the existing NYS fracking ban to prevent CO2 fracking in addition to hydrofracking. A8866/S8357 were sponsored and championed by Assemblymember Anna Kelles and Senator Lea Webb and were advocated for by organizations across the state.
We’re grateful to all who fought for this bill and for a frack-free New York.
