CONGRESS YOU HAVE OIL ON YOUR HANDS
Join Rabbi Waskow of the Shalom Center and many others
Tuesday, July 20th is the 3-month anniversary of the start of the BP disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, but Congress hasn't even voted on legislation to end our addiction to oil. In the meantime, Big Oil continues to hand out millions in campaign donations to Congress. In short, Congress has been caught with oil on their hands. Join us at high noon on July 20th in Upper Senate Park, Constitution and New Jersey Avenues, on Capitol Hill to demand:
-Dirty Energy Money Out of Politics!
-Pass Climate Legislation That Reduces Carbon and Promotes Clean Energy!
