"If you live near oil and gas production you have a higher chance of major health problems. We also know property values are lower if you are near oil and gas." - Assemblywoman Dawn Addis, highlighting the direct impact of oil drilling on local communities, emphasizing health and economic concerns.
"Supporters say local residents have to deal with the health issues and pollution problems from oil and gas wells so it’s only fair that they have a voice in whether, where and how drilling is allowed." This reflects the growing demand for local governance over drilling practices.
