Congress: Stop the Next Oil Disaster



The Deepwater Horizon oil disaster claimed the lives of 11 workers, killed scores of threatened and endangered sea turtles, brown pelicans and dolphins, and devastated the Gulf Coast economy. The long-term ecological impacts of the disaster may not be known for years.
This week, the National Oil Spill Commission released its final report on the catastrophe -- but by itself, a report cannot avert another disaster.


Urge your representative and senators to take action now to protect America’s shorelines, wildlife and regional economies from another offshore oil disaster.
