Fossil fuel company Enbridge has recently proposed expanding a fracked gas pipeline through Northern Westchester, NY, known as Project Maple. However, moms showed up to put a stop to it.

On June 25, 2025, the Croton-on-Hudson Board of Trustees voted to pass a resolution opposing Project Maple. This project is a dangerous plan to expand the Algonquin pipeline and pump even more fracked gas through local neighborhoods. The vote followed a rally where members of the Mothers Out Front Northern Westchester team joined community leaders in rejecting the fossil fuel industry’s latest threat.

“As mothers, we refuse to stand by while pipeline expansions threaten our children’s health, safety, and future,” said Mothers Out Front member Donna O’Malley. “These projects endanger our communities with toxic leaks, climate chaos, and irreversible environmental damage. We demand an immediate halt to all pipeline expansions and a swift transition to clean, renewable energy. Our families deserve a safe, healthy world — and we will fight for it.”

This success is proof that when moms organize, speak out, and demand better, real change occurs.

Mothers Out Front is building a movement of moms who are ready to fight back against the fossil fuel industry. Join our Moms v. Methane campaign to help stop fossil gas infrastructure and accelerate the transition to clean energy in your community. Because our kids deserve better, and our moms don’t back down.
