Description: Come and join “Hands Across the Sand” with us this Saturday to protect our coasts from dangerous offshore drilling and to restore the Gulf of Mexico. We will be standing together with tens of thousands of people all over the world to make a positive statement for a clean energy future.

Citizens of the Gull will gather to call on Congress to take action for a healthy gulf this Saturday, June 25th. It’s been over a year since the BP drilling disaster began and Congress has yet to pass legislation to restore or protect our Gulf and our communities.

Hands Across the Sand events are happening throughout the country, so wherever you are, you can help just by coming out to show your support.

Congress needs to direct BP’s Clean Water Act fines back to the Gulf so that we can restore our threatened ecosystems. Our elected officials also must act to give impacted communities the ability to monitor future oil and gas activity by creating a Gulf of Mexico Regional Citizen’s Advisory Council.

BP’s oil is still out in the Gulf, and we are still experiencing impacts along our coast, in our waters and in our communities. It’s time that the federal government make BP pay to truly make things right in the Gulf and protect the Gulf and all of our coasts from future disasters.

Please come out this Saturday, June 25th to join “Hands Across the Sand”.
