America is turning 250! Energy Citizens are celebrating by advocating for the oil and natural gas industry that powers so much of what we use every day.
Here’s to the next 250 years.
Oil and natural gas workers power our economy, fuel innovation and keep America moving forward. API just launched our new America 250 campaign to honor the grit and determination of the workforce delivering the reliable energy that powers our daily lives.
There’s no off switch for energy. American oil and natural gas keep costs affordable, support jobs, and strengthen communities across the country.
Life never stops, and the energy we depend on shouldn’t either.
Watch:
API just launched our new “Some Things” campaign to show how American oil and gas delivers reliable, affordable energy — and why permitting reform is essential to build the infrastructure that powers our everyday lives.
Louisiana is showing what carbon capture and storage can do: create jobs, strengthen communities, and power a stronger energy future.

The United States is the world’s largest producer of both oil and natural gas. Strong U.S. production supports our economy and makes us less dependent on foreign suppliers that may not share our interests.
The National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska just had its LARGEST oil & gas lease sale. This is a huge win for energy security & our nation’s economy.

The U.S. energy landscape looks very different than it did 10 years ago. American crude imports from the Persian Gulf have dropped from 25% in 2014 to just 8.6% in 2025 — a shift driven by record domestic production and deeper energy ties with Canada.
Millions of Americans rely on energy that’s affordable and reliable. Energy Citizens know outdated permitting delays drive up costs and hurt consumers.
That's why we are urging leaders to fix the permitting process and move energy projects forward.
Ahead of #SOTU: Record U.S. oil and natural gas production is driving affordability and growth. Now we must build—Congress should pass bipartisan permitting reform to deliver the infrastructure America needs. https://t.co/6H3IaPXD3n
For over 50 years, presidents from both parties have backed stronger, more reliable U.S. energy. This President’s Day, we honor that tradition by celebrating American energy.
Yesterday at API’s State of American Energy event in DC, industry leaders, policymakers and market analysts came together to discuss what’s next for U.S. energy leadership — meeting rising energy demand with smart policy that outlasts political cycles and supports long-term investment, reliability and growth.
API President & CEO @MJ_Sommers sits down with actor Andy Garcia of the hit series Landman to discuss Hollywood’s portrayal of the energy industry, and the real people whose work powers the country long after the cameras stop rolling.
Today is the day! @APIenergy’s State of American Energy is happening now—spotlighting U.S. energy leadership and innovation. Follow along for updates! #SOAE2026
