Alliance23	8	Yes	We must take action against climate change, this bill does that!
Saxenheim Workers’ Union	20	No	Banning all new fossil-fuel extraction would directly undermine Saxenheim’s energy independence, domestic industry, and resource security. Strictly enforced pollution and water standards can protect the environment without abandoning domestic energy production. The existing approach better balances environmental responsibility with jobs, industrial strength, and national energy security.
