The Arctic Refuge is Under Attack

The Senate just passed a tax bill that includes opening up the Arctic Refuge to destructive oil and gas drilling. Now it’s up to you to make sure the House doesn’t move forward with this reckless and harmful attack.
Exploiting the Arctic Refuge flies in the face of longstanding efforts from Democrats and Republicans to protect America’s wildest landscape against the greed of millionaires and corporate polluters. We cannot let Congress rubber stamp an agenda that does irreversible damage to the iconic Arctic Refuge.
Contact your Member of Congress and tell them to vote against any tax bill that threatens the Arctic Refuge with harmful oil and gas drilling.
The American people don’t want to turn this wild, unspoiled wildlife sanctuary and its wild rivers into an industrial oil field, and for good reason. We must keep the Arctic Refuge free from the threat of corporate polluters and the harm of destructive drilling!
