Tell the Senate:
Strengthen Clean Energy Bill!

Hi
Leonard,

We all celebrated when the House of Representatives passed the historic
American Clean Energy and Security Act, designed to tackle the
ever-growing problem of global warming.

Now it's time for
the Senate to strengthen and then pass the House bill >>

This legislation does not include everything we wanted, but it
establishes a critical first step in building the foundation to curb
global warming, reduce our dependence on oil and start the transition
to a clean energy economy.

To maximize the potential benefits of climate action, Senate climate
legislation should improve on the House bill by, among other things:

• strengthening
  the renewable electricity standard to require 25 percent of our
  electricity to come from renewable sources, such as the wind and sun,
  by 2025.
• investing
  more money in renewable energy and energy efficiency programs that will
  save consumers money.
• limiting
  "offsets," which allow polluters to postpone emissions cuts in their
  own facilities by paying for reductions elsewhere.

We need your help
to put a strong bill over the finish line. Please urge your Senators to
act quickly to strengthen and pass the House bill >>

Thank you,
LiAnna
