CONTACT YOUR HOUSE MEMBER:
LET’S STOP THE $50 BILLION NUCLEAR/COAL BAILOUT!
February 9, 2009
Dear Friend,
We have now confirmed that the “compromise” Senate stimulus bill still contains the $50 Billion pre-emptive bailout for the dangerous and dirty nuclear power and coal industries.
But as we’ve noted before, the version passed by the House of Representatives does not include this provision.
Now we need to ensure that the House position prevails in the final negotiations over the two versions. Please send a letter to your House member now by clicking here.

And then please call your member at 202-224-3121.
We’ve been getting more than 1200 letters per day into the Senate! Now let’s turn that focus to the House. Note: this letter is new, so even if you’ve sent a letter to your Representative already, please send the new one too.
And, please forward this Alert to all of your mailing lists, friends, colleagues. Put it up on blogs, Facebook and Myspace pages, and everywhere you communicate.
Let’s make clear we’re not willing to be the bankers of last resort for new nuclear reactors and coal plants. Nor do we want more dangerous radioactive waste and dirty coal ash piling up in our communities.
Thank you to the thousands and thousands of you who have acted so far in this campaign–your response has been amazing! But your help is needed even more now. Congress is trying to finish the stimulus bill this week–our actions now can make the difference! Click here to send your message to your Representative.

Your help is needed and gratefully appreciated.

Thanks for all you do,
