UPDATE: click here [7] to follow the campaign to support the House Republicans and the "don't go" movement on twitter, (#dontgo [7]).
Unless you've been living under a rock, you probably know that energy policy has become a big issue lately. And you don't need to look any further than the gas pump to know that it has a huge impact on our economy.
[8]Well, now the Republicans have finally gotten their act together and taken the bull by the horns, so to speak, and are promoting an "all of the above" strategy to solve our energy problems. It's called the American Energy Act, (H.R. 6566).
In short, it really does seek to do "all of the above" when it comes to addressing our energy needs. Meaning, all of the proposed solutions that have been offered - more drilling, more refineries, more nuclear, more wind, more solar, more hydrogen research, more conservation, more tax incentives, etc...
It's one of those "about time" ideas, and it deserves our support.
Unfortunately, Nancy Pelosi and the Dems have decided it's more important to go on vacation right now than deal with this issue. So now's our chance to let them know how we feel. We've set up a petition and a fax campaign on this issue here. [8]
So be sure to show your support for the American Energy Act - and tell Congress to get back to work!
