A TV ad from Republican Senate candidate Dave McCormick claims that Kamala Harris "would make" hundreds of thousands of fracking-dependent jobs in Pennsylvania “disappear” Even if Harris wanted to ban fracking, which she now says she doesn’t, she alone would only be able to do so on federal land.

A ban on state or private land, where the vast majority of oil and natural gas production in the country takes place, would require an act of Congress .

Fracking has helped produce record amounts of crude oil, natural gas in the U.S ..

The NRSC ad says, “ Harris Fracking Ban 330,640 lost jobs” is based on a 2023 report commissioned by the American Petroleum Institute .

The report says 423,700 jobs tied to Pennsylvania ’s oil and natural gas industry in 2021 .

The figure is an estimate of the economic impact for the broader oil and gas industry, an expert says.
