Carbon Tax will put U.S. Through "Economic Wringer"
Steve Elliott
From the Desk of:
Steve Elliott, President, Grassfire.org Alliance
According to the Associated Press, the Energy and Commerce Committee is now considering the Carbon Tax bill!
Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) chairman of the committee
is eager to move the bill forward--possibly by the
end of this week, saying the nation is at a
crossroads and its reliance on fossil fuels.
He added that a shift to cleaner energy will
reduce the risks of climate change.
But Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) and the committee's
ranking Republican believes differently, saying
passage of the Carbon Tax would put the nation
"through an absolute economic wringer."
Last week Grassfire launched our FaxFire targeting the Energy and Commerce committee--the very committee considering the Carbon Tax that would require every American family pay an annual $3,100 tax!

++ No time for delays!
Last week we told you why Obama and his cohorts are so eager to get the Carbon Tax out of committee...because they fear public scrutiny!
Public backlash jeopardizes their radical plan to "save the planet" and empower the government to tax and control the air you and I breathe!
That's why I'm urging ALL members of
the Grassfire team to take immediate action with
me by scheduling your personalized faxes to the
key members of the Energy and Commerce committee
at the exact time they are considering this foolhardy bill!

Only a dramatic groundswell of citizen-led opposition can short- circuit what would certainly prove to be a knockout blow to our already sagging economy and overburdened taxpayers.
That's why I'm hoping we can deluge the committee with thousands upon thousands of personalized faxes, like this one that says:
According to Zogby International, citizen opposition to
the bill is growing, and today 57 percent oppose
cap-and-trade legislation. Additionally, a Pew Research
poll ranked global warming dead last behind the economy
and 18 other areas!
With your help right now, we can significantly stir up the waters and jeopardize this liberal plan to push this bill through as
quickly as possible.
Don't stand pat and do nothing--not when the timing for grassroots action is so perfect. Whether you choose to download our letters and targets to fax on your own, or simply click below for the convenience of having Grassfire send them on your belhalf, the TIME IS NOW TO TAKE ACTION against the Carbon Tax bill.
