Sound, Reliable Energy

A steady, reliable supply of oil from Canadian oil sands would stabilize energy costs, fuel growth and foster economic and energy security for Illinois employers and farmers.

Canadian oil sands can meet the nation's oil needs with greater reliability and with less risk of supply disruptions to consumers and businesses.  This is good news for employers and workers in the Prairie State who depend on energy delivery in a timely, consistent manner.

Canadian oil sands also provide us with energy from a friendly neighbor.  This means more reliability, without having to depend on foreign partners, some of whom don’t share America’s best interests.
