Great rant on how Congressman Wittman wants to maintain the fossil fuel status quo by keeping Virginians enslaved to dirty energy while destroying the environment.

Did you know that Virginia has hundreds of gas and oil “stripper wells”?

Many are in Wittman’s Tidewater/Piedmount region and are not only contaminating ground water but releasing large amounts of methane gas.

Biden had a program to reduce and/or cap this methane by Trump Republican and are actively reversing these environmental protections.

ProPublica has done an expose’ on this DEREGULATION and described here.

The link you provided doesn’t show us any active wells in the First District. Can you give us a list and specific locations?
