THEY WANT TO DRILL. WE NEED TO SHOUT.
They Want to Drill. We Need to Shout.
The Trump administration OF COURSE dropped a holiday surprise nobody asked for: a plan to auction off 1.27 billion acres of our ocean to oil companies. That's 34 potential lease sales stretching from Alaska to California to the Gulf coast—including areas locals have fought to protect for decades.
Think your state's coastline is safe? Think again. California's entire coast is on the chopping block. Florida's waters? They're creeping closer. Alaska? Twenty-one separate areas up for grabs.
Here's the good news: They have to listen to us first. The public comment period runs through January 23, 2026, and last time 86,000 people spoke up. This time, we need to be louder.
Your move: Submit your comment through our sample comment letter (or the Federal Register portal) before the clock runs out. Make it personal. Make it pointed. Make it count.
The ocean doesn't have a lobby. But it has us.
Comment now. Comment loud. Deadline: January 23.
