The House will vote today on legislation to block offshore oil and gas drilling along our coasts, in order to protect wildlife and coastal economies that rely on clean and healthy oceans. #ProtectOurCoastpic.twitter.com/EJstzBU3Ak
Pres. Obama enacted protections for our coasts, but Pres. Trump reversed these protections & opened up billions of acres to offshore oil & gas drilling. I led @AppropsDems in passing a FY20 Interior funding bill blocking this admin from spending funds on drilling in these areas.
We’ll also vote this week to repeal part of the 2017 #GOPTaxScam that opened up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil & gas drilling. Trump & the GOP pitched oil & gas lease sales in #ANWR as a way to bring in an influx of revenue to offset their tax cuts for billionaires.pic.twitter.com/S9poSLhQ8y
But projections show that #ANWR leases won’t bring in the cash the GOP used to justify drilling in a wildlife sanctuary. So our @AppropsDems FY20 Interior funding bill blocks any lease bid that doesn’t bring in the $500 million in revenue the GOP promised.https://www.arctictoday.com/u-s-house-democrats-vote-to-block-anwr-drilling-if-leasing-bids-dont-deliver/ …
.@HouseDemocrats are working #ForThePeople to ensure taxpayers aren’t shortchanged by the GOP’s lack of foresight in opening up #ANWR in the first place & risking damage to delicate ecosystems for very little in return.
