[BCNnet] Oil Drilling in ANWR now in Defense Appropriations bill

[John & Jane Balaban]

The good news is that it's very easy to contact senators online and faster
than calling. Click on this URL:
http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm and you
will find a list of all the senators, most of whom have online forms you can
easily fill in with your message. I actually sent a "letter" to not only the
Illinois senators, but several other key senators, urging them to filibuster
if necessary to stop the drilling provision.

Fellow BCNnetters
If you haven't seen this already, I urge you to go to the Cantwell website
and sign the petition. You've probably followed Sen. Stevens sleazy back
door attempt to get drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge approved
by attaching it as a rider to the Defense Appropriations bill. Sen. Cantwell
of Washington state is one of the strong voices in the Senate against this
back door maneuver. 
See the msg pasted below. And I urge you to call your senators and ask them
to stand firm against this, using a filibuster if necessary. The birds of
the Arctic will thank you!
Regards
Bob Fisher

Senator Cantwell has totally stepped up to the plate and is battling
the bully Stevens - yet again.

She is looking for our help to generate millions of names to reinforce
her effort on behalf of the Arctic.

PLEASE follow through on this.  Many of us have asked Senator Cantwell
to champion this issue - the least we can do is sign the Arctic
petition.
