John,

Last week, President Biden announced a permanent ban on new offshore oil and gas drilling, a move that will protect our oceans, coastal communities, and local economies that have lived under Big Oil’s exploitation for too long.

Not only does this action cement President Biden’s historic climate legacy, but it is also something that President-elect Trump and his incoming administration will not be able to undo – though we can be sure they’ll try.

Trump has already stated that he wants to halt wind energy construction once in office. And with the GOP in control of both the House and Senate, our hard-earned environmental progress – including the Inflation Reduction Act – is at risk.

John, rest assured that as Ranking Member on the House Natural Resources Committee, I will continue to stand firmly in defense of our environment and fight for a cleaner, safer energy future for all.

But, we must prove that public opinion remains on our side. Add your name with mine to send a clear message that we won’t let polluters destroy our planet and endanger future generations with free reign.

Californians have experienced firsthand the disasters caused by oil spills, from destroyed beaches and marine animal populations to devastated fisheries and local businesses – that’s why President Biden’s action is so important.

Public opinion is clear on this issue, John: the vast majority of Californians oppose offshore drilling, and we will not hand over our waters to polluters.

We will no longer allow our invaluable oceans, fisheries, coastal communities, economies, and planet to be put at risk just for the benefit of the fossil fuel industry’s profit margin. Our coasts are worth fighting for.

The world is transitioning to a green, clean energy future. I applaud Biden’s decision to permanently ban new offshore drilling leases in federal West Coast waters – it’s time to shift our energy investments to safe, renewable sources.

We must ensure that dirty, dangerous oil drilling is a thing of the past and put an end to the environmental disasters it causes, and take meaningful steps towards addressing the climate crisis.

Congress must listen to the local communities and millions of Americans who are speaking out. Sign on here to send a clear message that we won’t allow our environmental protections to be undone:
