(ROTH):
"'A-P-I' AND THE 'MINNESOTA PETROLEUM COUNCIL' ARE LAUNCHING A NEW CAMPAIGN THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE NATURAL-GAS- AND OIL-INDUSTRY'S LEADERSHIP IN REDUCING EMISSIONS TO RECORD-LOW LEVELS; IT ALSO CALLS FOR COMMON GROUND IN THE ENERGY-DEBATE, BOTH IN 20-20 AND BEYOND.  IN MINNESOTA ALONE, OUR INDUSTRY SUPPORTS ALMOST 120-THOUSAND JOBS--AND CONTRIBUTES MORE THAN 14-BILLION DOLLARS, EACH YEAR, TO THE STATE'S ECONOMY.  WHAT'S MORE, AMERICA'S 'SHALE BOOM' HAS SPECIFICALLY CREATED A NUMBER OF NEW PIPE-TRADE JOBS--RIGHT HERE, IN THE STATE OF MINNESOTA.  TODAY'S AFFORDABLE ENERGY PROVIDES GREATER STABILITY--WHICH ALLOWS BUSINESSES TO PLAN BETTER FOR THEIR FUTURE.  INDEED, ENERGY IS TIED TO EVERYTHING THAT BUSINESSES DO--FROM THE NATURAL GAS THAT'S USED TO POWER MANUFACTURING-FACILITIES AND RETAIL-STORES ALIKE, TO THE FUEL THAT THEY RELY ON TO TRANSPORT PRODUCTS.  LOW-COST ENERGY HELPS TO KEEP THESE BUSINESSES OPERATING--SO THAT FAMILIES CAN CONTINUE TO EARN A DECENT LIVING."

Mr. Roth is also the executive director of the Wisconsin Petroleum Council.
