Ensure New Global Warming Act Remains Strong

Target: U.S. House of Representatives
Sponsored by: Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee
Democratic Representatives Henry Waxman and Ed Markey have just introduced the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 into Congress. The act is comprehensive energy legislation that, if passed, will create millions of new clean energy jobs, save consumers hundreds of billions of dollars in energy costs, enhance America's energy independence and cut global warming pollution.

The discussion draft of the bill sets a nationwide standard for renewable electricity production, establishes a federal low carbon fuel standard and calls for a 20 percent cut in overall emissions from 2005 levels by 2020, among other things.

Sign on to support the Democrats' efforts to tackle global warming! Urge your Representative to ensure that the strictest energy standards are maintained throughout the House discussion of the bill!
