Don't give oil and gas companies the green light to drill public lands

We know that oil and gas drilling irreversibly damages our nation's beautiful wildlife and wild places. The Biden administration's pause on new oil and gas drilling leases on federal lands and oceans takes our country a step in the right direction.

But when representatives in the U.S. House introduced legislation that would allow oil and gas drilling to continue on public lands, they moved us in the wrong direction on our path toward a clean energy future. In 2021, we know that we can power our lives with clean, renewable energy -- so we're urging our representatives to stand up in support of moratoriums and to put these bad bills to rest.
