Grassfire has just learned that unprecedented power will be awarded to the president in a climate "carbon level" emergency!
Such a move could potentially shut down American businesses and cost untold numbers of jobs and produce no environmental benefit.
Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), an outspoken critic of the Cap and Trade legislation warns, “Emergency powers are granted to the President in times of natural disaster, war or after events like the 9/11 attacks. " President should not have the power to pick winners and losers in our already struggling economy."
++Obama's unprecedented presidential power
As if the Federal Government doesn't have their hands in too much already what with high-jacking the banking, auto, healthcare, insurance and student loan industries, now they are plotting a climate take over!
As citizens we cannot allow this kind of aggressive gutting of our country and its people to go unchallenged.

I fully anticipate a vigorous Cap and Trade push, and am calling on you to help me rally and mobilize 100,000 grassroots citizens over the next ten days--citizens who...
...refuse to support any attempts to "fix" our environment
without measureable results!
...object to another stifling tax--as much as $3,100 per
family annually.
...will stand against self-serving lawmakers who think nothing
of passing along an overpriced, overreaching ineffective
legislation while ignoring the effects on American households
and businesses!
...resist giving the President supreme power over climate control!
I'm not standing for it, and I'm trusting you won't either.

We can't shoulder the crushing financial burden Cap and Trade will spawn, and we certainly don't want President Obama to broaden his unbridled power.
Thank you in advance for standing with me against this oppressive Cap and Trade legislation.
