This week YOU have the chance to actively oppose offshore oil drilling on our coast. The Department of the Interior's Secretary Ken Salazar is holding a public comment hearing this Thursday, April 16, at the UCSF Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco. Government officials are seriously considering lifting the moratorium on offshore oil drilling in the United States. We strongly encourage you to come to this Thursday's hearings and protect your local coastline from oil! Numerous citizen groups are holding a rally at the event and we need your presence to say no to offshore oil and yes to renewable energy.
If you would like to get more involved, there will be a pre-rally at the Sports Basement (1590 Bryant Street, San Francisco) on Wednesday, April 15 from 6 -9 PM. Come meet with others opposed to offshore drilling and screen print your own custom protest shirt with the San Fran-psycho crew.
