John,
Fighting the climate crisis is smart economic policy, and it’s one of the many reasons why Katie joined the House Natural Resources Committee this Congress.
For years, polluters like Big Oil have been drilling in our communities and on public lands. Yet our government hasn’t raised fees on these polluters in decades—and in some cases, it’s been a century—a move that costs working families billions of dollars.
Taxpayers shouldn't have to subsidize pollution, John. That’s why Katie wrote a bill that would finally update royalty and rental rates so families get a fair return.
This is one of the ways Katie is bringing her tough questioning and “whiteboard energy” to fight those responsible for the climate crisis—but we expect them to fight back. Can you please support our campaign so she can keep up this necessary work?

Between Hurricane Ida on the Gulf Coast and the Caldor Fire near Lake Tahoe, we’ve seen this year how catastrophic the consequences of climate change can be.
Climate change is a reality that we now unfortunately face. It’s on us to hold Big Oil, powerful corporate interests, and other polluters accountable for the damages they’ve caused, and keep them from doing any more harm. This is our chance to make bold changes in our climate policies, John—and Katie is leading the way.
Katie is going to use her position to fight with everything she’s got. If you agree that we should fine polluters like Big Oil and giant corporations and hold them accountable for their role in the climate crisis, please pitch in $3 or anything you can to power our movement.
Thank you,
Team Katie Porter
