Commission Shift is pleased to announce that we are now open for submissions for our annual poster contest. Submissions are open now and will close on March 1, 2026.
Join Us
The Railroad Commission open, virtual meeting is a good opportunity to learn more about the state’s oil and gas agency, and give public input if you are impacted by abandoned or orphaned wells, or any industry-related pollution.
Meetings start at 9:30 AM CT and typically last no more than 30 minutes.

Just $15 a month can drive real change, holding decision-makers accountable and ensuring a future where clean water and healthy land are protected for all.
And you won’t be alone. Heart of the Shift is a movement of people who refuse to stand by while our water and land are put at risk. Together, we are building a stronger, more sustainable Texas — one where our voices shape the policies that protect what we love.

Inclusive decision-making is one of Commission Shift’s core values. We believe that oil and gas workers, farmers and ranchers, neighbors of oil and gas development, students of Texas’ public schools, energy consumers, and the many others that are affected by the oil and gas industry in Texas deserve stability, safety, clean air, and clean water.
Having a strong democracy includes more than showing up to the polls. Our state can achieve better results in rulemakings, strategic plans, permit proceedings, and more when the public is meaningfully engaged, authentically listened to, and when their needs are incorporated into decisions.
We need you to speak out for reform at the Railroad Commission!
