No new drilling! Ramp up a transition to renewables now!

You said it yourself last week: Enough is Enough! Now is not the time for U.S. oil companies to sit on record profits. I appreciate your joining our allies in releasing millions of barrels of oil from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve as a “wartime bridge” for the next six months, but a bridge to increasing domestic oil production takes us backward. We are in a climate crisis! We voted for you to lead us forward to avoid climate catastrophe by rapidly implementing a green economy. I want you to use the Defense Production Act to curb oil and gas company price gouging by imposing price controls, and to provide urgent assistance to ramp up domestic production and implementation of sustainable energy and conservation systems. This is a matter of enormous urgency. Please act! Thanks.
