I need your help. Will you make a call?

Congress
will consider energy legislation this week. Of course, the oil industry
is pushing its "drill, drill" slogan with all its might -- and some are
hoping to use this for political advantage.

Meanwhile, tax
credits for investments in solar and wind power have not been extended,
and the growing renewables business that just made America the largest
producer of wind power in the world, is on the verge of shutting down
huge planned projects all over the country.

Billions in private investment, thousands of megawatts of new, clean energy, and more than 100,000 new jobs expected for 2009 will be lost.

We
face a stark choice: subsidize old, dirty energy or invest in new,
clean energy. This should be easy, but the influence of the oil lobby
is deep -- they've already spent more than $100 million in lobbying and
advertising this year. Please call your members of Congress now and tell them to pass legislation that will Repower America.

Washington
is being diverted by all the political noise around "drill, drill" away
from what really will make a difference -- building a new, clean energy
future. Projects in the pipeline that will power millions of homes will
be canceled, setting us back for years, if Congress doesn't do the
right thing now. Congress needs to hear from all of us.
