There are few things that unite Democrats and Republicans along the coasts quite like this: nobody wants oil drilling rigs off their beaches. Communities up and down the shoreline, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, have fought for decades to protect their coasts, fisheries, and economies from oil spills. Nobody likes this proposal, except Big Oil companies.
After a wave of backlash and push back from SEEC Members in Congress, the White House has pulled back on some plans for drilling in the Atlantic. That’s proof that public pressure works.
But don’t be fooled: they’re still moving forward with plans to open up the Pacific coast and the Gulf of Mexico to offshore drilling, so this fight is far from over.

Now we are counting on you to help our SEEC members pass climate, clean energy and environmental justice policies in the 119th Congress while we continue fighting for a sustainable future.
