Environmental Regulation
Common Sense Energy Development
Radical environmental activists are trying to burden North Dakota's energy and
ag producers with unnecessary regulation. They might call themselves
"green," but their extreme agendas would choke North Dakota until we're
blue. That's why your vote for Randy Christmann for PSC is so important.
Randy is a third generation rancher and state senator who has been a leader
in energy and ag policy.
Randy Christrnann supports:
Responsible development of ag and energy resources
Development of new transmission and pipelines
Increased natural gas and oil processing in N D
Preserving our North Dakota outdoors
Protecting private property rights
Keeping North Dakota's energy and ag sectors strong
