URGENT! Stop the Carbon Tax (Cap and Trade) NOW!
June 25, 2009
We have just learned that Pelosi and key Democrats have struck yet another back-room deal to force a floor vote massive cap-and-trade Carbon Tax to the House this Friday.
Our reports indicate that many members of Congress, especially Democrats in agriculture and coal states, are still undecided. But they are facing enormous pressure from Pelosi, Obama and the radical environmental lobby.
I am asking every Grassfire team member to take immediate action in two ways:
#1 — Send Faxes Now!
We must let every member of the House know that citizens do NOT want yet another enormous tax and government bureaucracy! We oppose their massive carbon taxing scheme! Go here to send your faxes:

If you prefer to send your faxes, please use the fax numbers and sample fax letters provided above.
#2– Call your Rep today!
Call your Representative and key House leaders and tell them you oppose H.R. 2454!
Your Representative in the North Bay:
Rep. Woolsey 202-225-5161
Other key House leaders or undecideds to call:
Rep. Collin Peterson (Ag Committee Chair): 202-225-2165 (Peterson just caved and is now supporting the bill)
Rep. Tim Holden (Ag Cmmtte Vice Chair): 202-225-5546
Rep. Tim Walz (MN) 202-225-2472
Rep. Mike McIntyre (NC): 202-225-2731
Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX): 202-225-1640
Rep. David Scott (GA): 202-225-2939
Talking Points:
1. I oppose the cap-and-trade Carbon Tax. This is an outrageous power grab by the federal government that will greatly expand government control and increase energy costs for my family.
2. This system of “allocations” has failed in Europe and will politicize America’s energy policy.
3. Especially in these difficult economic times, Congress must not pass this tax on the American people!
Thanks for taking a stand!
