Dear Friend,

I just took action to stop President Bush's scheme to let oil companies resume illegal offshore drilling. I hope you will too.

Please have a look at this CREDO Action e-activism campaign. There's been a moratorium on offshore oil drilling since 1981, but if President Bush has his way, there won't be for long. Earlier this week, Senator John McCain reversed his previous position and called for lifting the moratorium that has protected our shores for the last 27 years. Days later, President Bush hopped on the bandwagon, demanding that Congress reverse this time-tested policy by July 4th. Such action would be a disaster for the environment, a boon for the oil companies, and won't have any effect whatsoever on gas prices.

You can check out what is at stake and send your own message to the the governor using the link below.
