  &lt;p style="margin:0 0 14px 0; font-size:16px;"&gt;The energy business has a long history of fueling the economy of our great nation. Royalty owners are responsible for the development of their minerals while working with industry partners and operators. NARO serves as their support system when guidance and education are needed.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="margin:0 0 14px 0; font-size:16px;"&gt;Your business presence, combined with the knowledge and engagement of royalty owners, is essential to building a stronger energy future in the United States.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="margin:0 0 18px 0; font-size:16px;"&gt;We hope you’ll join NARO East in supporting these efforts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;!-- Signature --&gt;
