TOGETHER WE CAN SAVE THE ARCTIC NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE!
my review hereJust one week after President Bush lamented our country’s addiction to oil in his State of the Union address, he released a budget that called for drilling oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge! Legislation to open this pristine wilderness to oil rigs was soundly defeated in the Senate in December 2005. It is time for the President and Congress to stop wasting the American people’s time with this dead-end proposal. It is time for Congress to start focusing on REAL energy solutions!

TELL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE TO KEEP ARCTIC DRILLING OUT OF THE BUDGET!
In the spring the House Budget Committee produced a Budget Resolution that does NOT include instructions to drill in the Arctic Refuge! Of course, Arctic Refuge drilling has no place in our federal budget bill (or any other bill!). We commend the House of Representatives for finally recognizing this!However, the Senate budget bill does include provisions for drilling in the Arctic, and the two bills must still be reconciled. We expect action on this issue in the fall.
Fill out this form to ask your Representative to do everything in his or her power to keep provisions for drilling out of the final budget bill.

Protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
Dear Member of Congress,
I urge you to protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. For the past several years, drilling supporters have tried to achieve their misguided aims through nearly every back door imaginable. Ultimately, Congress has rightly rejected drilling in the Arctic Refuge again and again. Instead of wasting more energy on bad ideas from years past, Congress should be looking toward clean energy solutions for the future and avoiding more dead-end budget schemes.
I urge you to oppose any legislation that puts the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge at risk. Instead, please focus your attention on priorities for our nation that protect our environment and save us all from an unnecessarily contentious debate over our national budget.
Sincerely,
(Your signature will be added from the information you provide below.)
