Our coastlines remain at risk for new offshore drilling, under a plan proposed by the U.S. federal government. Americans want their members of Congress to take action to Protect Our Coasts and we need to make our voices heard! Next week (starting July 16), we will be flooding Congressional offices with phone calls asking Representatives to urge Secretary Zinke to eliminate the federal offshore drilling plans. Will you join us? Here’s how: 1. Go here to find out who your member of Congress. https://ziplook.house.gov/htbin/findrep_house?ZIP= 2. Call your Representative. Below is a suggested script: IF YOU LIVE IN CALIFORNIA: "Hi, my name is ___ and I live in _____. I’m calling to request Representative ___ to write a letter to Secretary Zinke asking him to remove the Pacific Coast from federal offshore drilling plans. I stand with the majority of Californians who believe our beaches, fisheries, and coastal tourism and recreation economy are too important to risk an oil spill. Will you ask him to write that letter? Thank you." IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE CALIFORNIA: "Hi, my name is ___ and I live in _____. I’m calling to request Representative ___ to write a letter to Secretary Zinke asking him to remove the ____ Coast from federal offshore drilling plans. I stand with more than 100,000 Americans who believe our beaches, fisheries, and coastal tourism and recreation economy are too important to risk for more drilling. Will you ask him to write that letter? Thank you." 3. Share this with your friends and family! #ProtectOurCoasts #ProtectThePacific
