It is time for Wyoming citizens to join together and demand that our two United States senators give full support to strengthen and pass the Climate Security Act (S. 2191).
This is the first bipartisan climate legislation in history to be voted out of committee. This law would reduce emissions from 25 to 32 percent, from 2005 levels, by 2025, in line with what scientists say is needed.
Big coal has already generated an estimated $50-million ad campaign in an attempt to weaken or defeat any global warming bill.
Please contact:
Sen. Enzi, 379A Senate Russell Office Building, Washington, D.C., 20510, or call, 888-250-1879 (toll-free).
Sen. Barrasso, 307 Dirksen Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C., 20510, or call, 866-235-9553 (toll-free).
Tell them to make a responsible choice and vote for Climate Security Act (S. 2191). They need to dispense with their strong ties to the energy industry for a change and do what is correct for the future of their constituents.
PATTY MARTIN, Sheridan
