U.S. is at energy crossroad

Tuesday, July 21, 2009

Dear Editor,

The clean energy bill that's in the Senate brings America to an important crossroad for our future.

We can fall back on the same old tired jobs-killing policies of special interests like Big Oil and Dirty Coal or we can move towards a more prosperous future and develop clean, safe sources of energy. The old way holds our energy future hostage and keeps us at the mercy of foreign oil and fossil fuels that pollute our air every day.

A new clean energy bill can provide resources that never run out and can help us provide millions of green jobs that will give our country an economic boost.

Our senators must support a strong clean energy bill in the Senate to create clean energy jobs for America, cut global warming air pollution, and move our economy away from the dirty fuels of the past.

We need to take the crossroad towards a clean energy future and our senators need to lead the way.
