Dear President Obama:
The American people do not want our fragile Arctic Ocean opened up to dangerous oil and gas drilling. Not in your administration’s five-year offshore plan, and not ever. Please use your executive authority to permanently protect the Arctic from drilling that threatens or climate and these pristine waters with catastrophic oil spills.
I also urge you to permanently protect our densely populated Atlantic coast from offshore drilling. While it is spared in the current five-year plan without permanent protection the coastline and its millions of residents will be vulnerable to oil and gas drilling in the future.
Thank you.
