Last year, the oil and gas industry generated more than $13 billion in state and local revenue and supported over 100,000 jobs. Tax revenue generated by the industry funds essential services residents use every day, including $680 million to public schools, $532 million for local infrastructure, and $1.2 billion for healthcare. The oil and gas industry brings revenue and economic benefits to you, no matter where you are and even if your county doesn't produce.
