Congress: Return to Work to Address Environmental Problems!
Target: U.S. Congress
Sponsored by: Care2
Sponsored by: Care2
Wilderness preservation, wildlife protection, watershed restoration and wildland firefighter safety are just a few of the topics of bills that Senator Tom Coburn prevented from getting through Congress before it recessed.
But these environmental protection acts are too crucial to ignore! Senator Coburn persistently opposes these bills because he says they will hurt the oil and gas industries - but he is ignoring the peril to our planet and its inhabitants. Frustrated with Coburn's stalling, senators have combined the measures into a single wilderness amendment bill, the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2008.
The Senate is considering coming back after the election for a lame-duck session to vote on this important bill and address our troubled economy, but many senators are reluctant to return to work. Tell your senator: The environment is important to me, so please return to session to pass the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2008!

I am copying an earlier entry as these are my sentiments exactly. There is no "why" we should protect our environment but rather how soon can we take action. Dear Senator there is no time to wait. Take action now.

The Environment is an important issue. We are all part of the environment. Please don't let Senator Tom Coburn, who obviously works for the oil industry, prevent crucial environmental protection laws from coming to a vote.
