Patriot,

I need to talk to you about something that should alarm every American who cares about national security: Governor Gavin Newsom’s radical war on domestic energy production.

 

But before I continue, let me introduce myself. I'm Vince Fong, and I proudly represent California’s 20th Congressional District. I recently laid out in my piece on Fox News that the consequences of Newsom's progressive agenda are no longer theoretical – they are crushing our pocketbooks and actively undermining our military readiness in the Indo-Pacific.

Because Newsom’s policies have choked off domestic production – with new oil drilling permits dropping by an appalling 95% since 2019 – California now pays the highest gas and electricity prices in the nation.

Instead of tapping into our own vast reserves, our reliance on foreign crude has skyrocketed to over 60%, forcing us to import oil from countries like Brazil and, critically, Iraq. 

This isn’t just poor policy; it’s a self-inflicted wound that transfers our wealth and security to foreign actors.

But the crisis is worse than just high prices.

Newsom’s actions are threatening our ENTIRE fuel supply chain. 

This manufactured scarcity doesn't just mean blackouts and price spikes for families; it directly endangers our brave servicemen and women.

California is the hub for U.S. Indo-Pacific Command. Our bases require jet fuel produced by local refineries. When Newsom's policies choke our pipelines and force refinery closures, he is directly weakening the military fuel supply needed to counter rising threats like China. 

In other words, his political ambition is sacrificing our national security.

This is incompetent, irresponsible, and dangerous. We cannot afford to stand by while political opportunism replaces common-sense governance.

I am fighting in Washington to bring sanity back to not just California, but across America. I’m working to expand domestic energy production, expedite permitting, and ensure our refineries and pipelines remain operational. We need to secure California’s energy future – and by extension, the security of our nation.

But to be frank, I need your help to fight this war on energy in Washington and here at home Patriot.

 

So if you’re able to, I’m humbly asking you to directly fuel my fight with a donation of $50, $25, or even just $15 today.

 

FUEL VINCE'S FIGHT AGAINST NEWSOM

${Recipient.FIRST_NAME}, The choice is clear: continue down a path of manufactured scarcity and foreign dependence, or join us to restore true energy independence for California and America.

I’m praying you’ll make the right choice.

 

In the fight,

Rep. Vince Fong
