Big Senate vote on global warming
The Senate is set to take a big vote on global warming as early as today.
The vote is on an effort led by Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) to block President Obama from enforcing the Clean Air Act to fight global warming. It will move America backward and halt the creation of clean energy jobs, just when we need them the most.
Call Sens. Russ Feingold and Herb Kohl now and tell them to speak out against this sneak attack on the Clean Air Act.
Call the Congressional switchboard (202-224-3121) and they'll connect you to the senators' offices. You can speak to the aides in their offices or leave a message.
Here's a sample of what to say:
"Hi, my name is ____ and I live in ____[city you live in]. I'd like the Senator to speak on the Senate floor against Senator Murkowski's efforts to undermine the Clean Air Act. Her amendment would block President Obama from enforcing the Clean Air Act to fight global warming. It will move America backward and halt the creation of clean energy jobs, just when we need them the most. Thank you."
With hundreds of calls like yours, we'll be able to swing the vote toward protecting the Clean Air Act, stopping global warming, and repowering America with clean energy. Thanks for your help.
