Dear Public Citizen Activist:

The Bush energy policy is finally coming to a vote in Congress.  NOW is the time
to let your
elected officials know that you don't support this regressive legislation, which
grew from
the infamous energy 'task force' headed by Vice President Dick Cheney. Tell your
elected
officials to oppose the energy bill because:
• It gives massive, unjustified subsidies to the mature and lucrative nuclear
and
fossil fuel energy industries
• It repeals vital consumer protections contained in the Public Utility
Holding
Company Act (PUHCA)
• It keeps the U.S. dependent on foreign energy sources and fails to mandate
improvements in automobile fuel economy.

TAKE ACTION!
What can you do? Intense pressure from concerned citizens will help defeat this
anti-
consumer legislation. KEEP IT GOING and do it NOW (lawmakers could vote as soon
as
today).  Please CALL your senators and representative and urge them to oppose
this
regressive legislation! Connect TOLL-FREE via the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at
877-762
-8762.
