Hot Indie News reporter Yvonne Gougelet is reporting from Washington D.C. this weekend from Power Shift, the largest grassroots Clean Energy training ever held. Over 10,000 concerned Americans have come to D.C. this weekend to urge Congress to end their ties with Big Polluters who are destroying our precious eco-system and causing wide spread terminal illness and death.
Our first video from the weekend is an interview with Jennifer Rexford, a Florida resident hired to clean-up the BP Oil Spill. She and 35 of her co-workers have fallen ill and many have died, due to exposure to BP oil and the toxic dispersant BP poured to “clean-up” the spill. The toxic chemical Corexit is manufactured by BP’s own company, Nalco.
Jennifer has been documenting her and her fellow co-workers’ situation. BP is not paying for their medical expenses. The workers are no longer receiving Medicaid. Hot Indie News is here in D.C. to spread awareness about Jennifer’s story, as well as all of the other countless, innocent victims, affected by the BP Oil Spill disaster.

Please spread the word.
