After returning from a “fact finding” trip to Alaska and the Rocky Mountains, House Minority Leader John Boehner and other House Republicans unveiled yet another drill-everywhere bill on the steps of the Capitol yesterday. They were greeted by an equal number of citizens urging them to move towards a clean energy future, rather than technology of the past. Rep. Boehner and other House Republicans were unable to land in Kaktovik, AK or see the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge on their recent trip to Alaska due to fog. But it wouldn’t have made any difference -- before leaving, Boehner said he thought they wouldn’t see any wildlife since it was just an Arctic desert anyway. Rep. Boehner didn't even have the courtesy to respond to an invitation from the Gwich'in Nation who consider the coastal plain of the Refuge "the Sacred Place Where Life Begins." Call your Representative and Senators today to urge them not to bankrupt the natural legacy of future generations for the short term profits of Big Oil. Urge them to oppose the “American Energy Act,” and any other attempts to open our public lands and waters to Big Oil. The Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121- ask for your Members’ offices by name. (You can look up your Representative at www.house.gov and your Senators at www.senate.gov.) ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ Save up to 10% - 30% on Moving Supplies.
