Same disclaimer. This is the LTE version. As you know, I am no longer EVEC funded, but moved to PAC funds and assigned to help with a campaign, so I can no longer do these pieces, but I forward this for your information and consideration. You might want to forward it to a larger distribution or one of you, the EVEC committee, follow up. I am only sending this to you, the EVEC committee members, and Erin, as that is as far as I think I can distribute.

Let me know if you have any questions, Thanks and good luck! Dear Editor, Congress quit working last week to come home to campaign. This break provides a good opportunity to examine how Congress addressed environmental protection and what our candidates positions are on the issues that affect the health and safety of [YOUR STATE] families. While anti-environmental members of Congress were working to dismantle environmental protections, Americans lost opportunities to hold polluting corporations responsible for their toxic waste, to stop attempts to weaken the clean air act, and to create a sensible energy policy. Congress will again address our nation's energy policy, clean air, and corporate responsibility for toxic waste, either in a "lame duck" session or next year. That's why it's important to examine the environmental records and positions of our candidates before voting on November 5th. (Insert Your Local Candidates' records on one or two issues voter guide style) I urge people to get the facts before you vote.
