Hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" is a major driver behind increased US oil and natural gas production and an advanced technology for safely producing affordable and reliable energy—which in turn helps make the US less dependent on foreign energy. It's time to speak up and say that Fracking Works for US. Take the pledge to support fracking today!

Here's what we know could happen if there is a ban on fracking:

• Millions of Jobs Lost – Communities across the country risk being severely impacted in an already strained job market. A ban on fracking could eliminate 19 million jobs between 2021 and 2025.
• Increased Cost of Living – The cost of living could increase by $5,661 for the average American through 2025 if a national ban were implemented in 2021.
• Decreased Household Income – Within 5 years, there may be a $3.7 trillion decrease in household incomes across the country.
• America's environment could be worse off without fracking – The U.S. Energy Information Administration concluded in 2020 that electric power sector emissions decreased by 33% from 2007 because less electricity was generated from coal, and instead generated by natural gas and non-carbon sources.
