DON'T LET UP

Due to overwhelming grassroots pressure, the Senate is holding off on consideration of the "Cap and Trade" tax until after the August recess. This is incredible news, because it shows that our voices are resonating in Washington and making a difference. Just weeks ago, emboldened lawmakers boasted that this massive energy bill would sail through Congress... But that was before they were buried beneath a sea of faxes, phone calls and other contacts from Grassfire team members alone. In fact, we estimate more than 500,000 citizen contacts were made on Capitol Hill! Every fax, every call angrily opposed the bill that would levy huge annual taxes on citizens--many of whom are out of work and struggling just to put food on their family's table.

don't let up, they won't, no matter how often they have to come back with it. we can't let them win this one, EVER !
