Stop Nancy Pelosi’s Tax-Hiking Energy Bill

Stop Nancy Pelosi’s Tax-Hiking Energy Bill!
While the American people realize that we face an energy supply problem in this country, liberals in Congress continue to put their heads in the sand and pretend otherwise.
Thankfully, a group of young Turks in the House and Senate is putting forward meaningful solutions to high energy prices, and leading a Gas Price Protest to put pressure on Congressional leadership to move a true energy reform bill through the Congress.
While conservatives ask for an “all of the above” energy package, the liberals are only pretending to include more exploration off our coasts. The Nancy Pelosi anti-energy bill would continue the faulty policy of preventing us from exploring for oil and natural gas in Alaska and in most areas off our coasts.
It would only allow states to “opt-in” to exploration, but not in places located within 50 miles of the coast. What’s worse, the bill would impose $30 billion in NEW TAXES on energy production! This is not a pro-supply energy bill; it is only a farce.
With your help we can stop the Pelosi bill and put pressure on Congressional leaders to support meaningful reforms that truly open up our domestic energy supply to exploration.
Please help us spread the message and TAKE ACTION now to send a letter to your elected officials.
