ACTION ALERT Bruce Braley - (202) 225-2911 Dave Loebsack - (202) 225-6576 Leonard Boswell - (202) 225-3806 Tom Latham - 202-225-5476 Steve King - 202.225.4426 The Energy Bill is hitting the floor of the House this week and the two most important sections are in jeopardy. Please call your Congressperson today to support: 1) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards that actually move our country away from overdependence on foreign oil and tackle global warming. The Markey-Platts CAFE standard would demonstrate that Congress is serious about our energy situation. The alternative Hill-Terry standard would undermine states, continue the light truck loophole, and is actually lower than what President Bush proposed. 2) A Renewable Electric Standard (RES) that increases investment in wind power and other forms of renewable energy to combat global warming, increases economic development in our state (GREEN COLLAR JOBS!), and empowers rural Iowans. The Udall-Platts RES would start us on course for comprehensive global warming legislation in this country and is great for our economy. The staff of multiple Congresspeople have told us that they NEED to hear from the grassroots on these two issues. Please ACT today and then email me to let me know you called - [log in to unmask] PASS THIS EMAIL ON!
