Issue No. 1: Urge Senators Chambliss and Isakson

to vote YES on S.J. Res. 26,

Restrict EPA Regulatory Power over Energy

The Urgency: Global warming regularly ranks last in polls, but the President of the U.S. (POTUS) is moving to by-pass Congress and use EPA to regulate the amount of energy Americans can use.  If he’s successful, EPA regulations will cause energy prices to “skyrocket,” as POTUS promised in his campaign, jobs will be lost and general economic havoc will result.

Facts: S.J. Res. 26 (a) prevents EPA from regulating greenhouse gases, (b) does not overturn science or the Clean Air Act and (c) will not prevent Congress from working on climate bills.

The EPA has already begun issuing climate regulations, which will raise electricity and gas.

S.J. Res 26 cannot be filibustered.  So, only 51 votes are necessary for its passage.

ACTION: Ask Senators Chambliss and Isakson to vote YES on S.J. Res. 26.
It will prevent the EPA from implementing cap-and-trade policies.
