Tell Boswell to stop the Dirty Air Act:

We need action on clean energy not more obstructionism.


Attend the Boswell Action on April 22;
also in celebration of Earth Day

Where: meet in front of Boswell's 300 Locust office in Des Moines
(parking on street and in lot around back and to east side of building)

When: at noon, Thursday, April 22, Earth Day

Why: to mark Earth Day and ask Boswell to stop the Dirty Air Acts

Dress: theme dress in rain gear, such as raincoats, rain hats, umbrellas,
galoshes, etc., to make the point of increasing severe weather due
to climate change.

Many of the Dirty Air Act proposals currently in Congress would block
President Obama's new Clean Car standards, and all would prevent regulation
of old dirty coal plants—unless Congress, like Rep. Boswell, stands up and
defends the Clean Air Act.

The Clean Car standards just finalized by the Obama Administration will cut
America's oil use by 11.6 billion gallons in 2016, saving us about $32
billion at the gas pump in one year, according to a new Environment America
analysis.

Leading the attack in the Senate are Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska and Jay
Rockefeller, D-West Virginia. In the House, it's three senior Democrats
along with the Republican leadership.

We're so close to a major, hard-fought victory for clean air and clean
energy.

With Big Oil pushing and bankrolling this rollback, your help is necessary.
