Thousands Protest Fracking in D.C. Rally 
-----------------------------------------


 
Thousands of people rallied on Capitol Hill on Saturday to protest the
national gas drilling process known as hydraulic fracturing, or
fracking. Organizers of the "Stop the Frack Attack" rally say they
brought together members of communities across the country whose lives
are being adversely impacted by the environmental damage of fracking.
The rally culminated in a march to the offices of America’s Natural
Gas Alliance and the American Petroleum Institute.
