We need you 
as an advocate…

Public policy is ever-changing, the results of which are sometimes beneficial to our industry, sometimes detrimental. Regardless of which party has control at any level of government, it’s important that we stay vigilant in our awareness of what’s happening and then respond accordingly in the best interest of our members, our allies, and our Utah friends and neighbors.

Here in Utah, we are blessed with abundant natural resources, oil and natural gas among them. These resources power our daily lives, keep our heating and electricity costs low, and serve as a major cog in Utah’s best-in-the-nation economy. That’s why Utah Energy United exists. It is incumbent upon us to tell our side of the story and advocate on our own behalf.

We’re seeking folks just like you to build a team of advocates who understand and can articulate the benefits of a robust oil and natural gas industry. We have a story to tell, and it’s up to us to tell it. Will you help us by both signing up yourself and also reaching out to the community at-large to engage those not directly in our industry? You might be asking: Like who?

We want folks who understand the positive impact oil and gas has on Utah: The favorite cafe of your field crew. The water hauler who works with you. Friends, neighbors, or fellow churchgoers who may not work in the industry but recognize its importance. Basically, we want a chorus of voices from across the community and the economy to help paint a complete picture of how oil and gas benefits Utah.

What’s required of you? First, we hope you’ll sign up yourself. Second, we would appreciate your help in spreading the word. You can expect a weekly email from us highlighting pertinent issues of the day. We hope you share it with your community.

Depending on the situation, we might call on our Utah Energy United folks who are willing to sign their names to letters to federal or state leaders, collaborate on op-eds and letters to the editor for media (don’t worry, you’ll have a lot of assistance from us in drafting these, if you want it), post on social media, or even appear in videos that help tell our story.

We cannot do this alone, we need as many voices as are willing to speak up about the positive impact of a prosperous oil and natural gas industry in Utah and beyond. Thank you for being a part of Utah Energy United. We can’t wait to have you join us!
