Tell Senator Rubio: No Drilling Off Our Coasts

President Trump’s pro-polluter allies in Congress are moving to reopen huge swaths of the Arctic, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans and the Eastern Gulf coast to oil and gas drilling — threatening our marine life and our coastal communities with the risk of catastrophic oil spills. Our senators and representatives have the power to stop this disaster-in-the-making — but we need to mobilize a massive public outcry that will compel our lawmakers to stand strong and defend our coasts.

Do your part to help: Urge Senator Rubio to oppose any attempts by anti-environment members of Congress to reopen our coasts to dangerous offshore drilling.

President Trump’s pro-polluter allies in Congress want to reopen our Arctic, Atlantic, Pacific, and Eastern Gulf coasts to oil and gas drilling — threatening our marine life and our coastal communities with the risk of catastrophic oil spills. Tell Senator Rubio to say No!

Dear Senator Rubio:

I am writing as your constituent to urge you to do everything in your power to stop Congress’s dangerous attempts to reopen large sections of America’s coasts to offshore drilling. Expanding offshore drilling threatens our communities and whales and other marine life with catastrophic oil spills, blocks our path to a clean energy future and keeps us shackled to the heavily polluting fossil fuels of the past, while doing nothing to make us more energy independent.

Offshore drilling wastes federal resources and puts fossil fuel industry profits before the public good. It’s nothing more than another handout to private oil companies, forcing taxpayers to continue subsidizing the fossil fuel industry.

The majority of Americans want our coasts to remain protected. Right now, you have a choice:  boost profits for fossil fuel companies, or invest in protecting our coasts. Please defend the American people, not the oil companies, and oppose any attempts to drill for oil and gas off our shores. Thank you.
