Bill Nelson Offshore Drilling Petition

Sen. Bill Nelson has a petition to help maintain the ban against drilling for oil off the coast of Florida. Nelson will deliver the petition to the Florida legislature.

The debate over the safety of offshore drilling is over. The spill from the Deepwater Horizon has ended it. Now, we must act quickly and decisively to make sure Big Oil isn't successful in putting rigs off Florida.

The Florida Legislature needs to go into special session and put a constitutional amendment with a permanent ban on the ballot this fall. It's the best way to make sure drilling isn't allowed in state waters, which are three miles to ten miles off shore.

Make your voice heard and help build support for amending Florida's constitution to prohibit any drilling off Florida by signing our petition today.
