From Congressman Peterson:

SUPPORT THE PETERSON AMENDMENT TO INCREASE DOMESTIC ENERGY PRODUCTION


The Peterson amendment to the Interior Appropriations bill would modify the 27-year old Congressional Moratorium preventing responsible, environmentally friendly, offshore oil and natural gas exploration. As a result of the congressional decree, it is currently illegal to produce American oil and natural gas on 85% of the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). By harvesting this offshore energy, the price at the pump will stabilize and eventually decline. Contact your Representative and Senators and demand that they support responsible offshore energy production. Below is a compilation of recent media attention and links to Speaker Pelosi's Office and to House Appropriations Committee Members. Contact Speaker Pelosi and the Appropriations Committee and demand that the Interior Appropriations bill be scheduled for consideration.

Thanks for your continued support,
John E. Peterson
Member of Congress
