It’s #WillowWednesday. Today, we have some required reading.

Dr. Rosemary Ahtuangaruak is mayor of Nuiqsut, Alaska. @ConocoPhillips' disastrous Willow Project would directly harm her hometown, which she outlines in her op-ed for @thehill.

Nuiqsut is a stone’s throw away from the Willow Project, the proposed oil drilling site in Alaska’s Western Arctic.

Dr. Ahtuangaruak underscores the importance of defending Indigenous peoples’ right to clean air and water, food security, and culture.
Dr. Ahtuangaruak writes that on top of causing toxic air and water pollution, Willow would “bulldoze straight through [crucial habitats], redirecting the animals’ migratory paths…and endangering the food security of local people.”
