Tell the Trump Administration: No Offshore Drilling — Our Coasts Aren’t for Sale! The Trump administration has released a plan to sell off our coasts for dangerous oil and gas drilling over the next five years. This proposal would auction off the coasts of Alaska, southern and central California, and in the Gulf of Mexico, polluting our waters and jeopardizing the health and safety of the people living in these communities — all to benefit Big Oil and Gas. Add your name and tell the Trump administration our coasts aren’t for sale!

We must speak up to stop offshore drilling. The Trump administration has released a dangerous draft plan for oil and gas drilling off our coasts over the next five years. The proposal would auction off essential waters, allowing oil and gas leasing off the coasts of Alaska, southern and central California, and in the Gulf of Mexico. Further exploitation of our communities, coasts, and precious waters by Big Oil and Gas would put us all in danger — we must act.

Communities have already experienced the devastating impacts of offshore drilling firsthand. From public health harms caused by toxic pollution and extreme weather, to threats to industries that coastal economies rely on, which generate billions in revenue and support millions of jobs, this plan would come at the grave expense of people’s health, safety, and livelihoods. That’s too high a cost!

The Trump administration’s draft plan would only prolong our dependence on dirty, costly fossil fuels when people need affordable, safe, and reliable clean energy. Taking action can’t wait.

Thank you for making your voice heard and demanding the safe, just, and equitable planet we all deserve.
