Support Alaskan Oil


With the recent defeat of the Keystone XL pipeline in the senate, the need for US oil exploration and production has never been greater. That's why we need your help in telling the federal government to immediately begin drilling in the Alaskan Arctic.
The benefits of this action are staggering. According to government reports, drilling in the region could:
Produce upwards of 500,000 barrels of oil a day, greatly increasing our domestic supply of energy. Create an annual average of 54,700 jobs nationwide. Increase payroll to $154 billion over the next 50 years.
That's why we're asking you today to submit a comment to the federal register voicing your support for Alaskan oil exploration.  To sign the petition, go to:
Thanks, Your friends at Consumer Energy Alliance

The price of Oil is now below break-even for fracking operations.  Alaskan oil, held hostage by the Obama Administration does not require fracking.  In order to keep US oil flowing toward energy independence through this low oil price period we are enjoying, we need permission to drill traditional wells.
We also need the Republican Senate to vote for the Keystone pipeline and pass it in 2015. It is the best solution for moving oil from the ‘great white north’.
