1) Take Action: Break Our Oil Addiction: Oppose New Drilling Bills As Americans observed the one year memorial of the BP oil disaster, Rep. Doc Hastings introduced a series of bills that would reward companies like BP with unprecedented drilling access to U.S. coastlines and beaches. Congress should permanently protect our treasured beaches, sensitive coasts, and valuable oceans from the kinds of environmental and economic devastation that the oil disaster brought to the Gulf of Mexico.
Urge your member of Congress to oppose any bill that would authorize new drilling and increase our dangerous addiction to oil. |
