Let's stop Cap and Trade

From the Desk of: Steve Elliott, President, Grassfire.org Alliance

Robert,

Following closely on the heels of ObamaCare, the Boxer-Kerry Cap and Trade bill has been inconspicuously moving through the Senate with a stealth goal to pass the bill before the Copenhagen Summit this December!

During a heated debate last week Sen. Barbara Boxer, Chairwoman of the Environment and Public Works committee refused to release a full economic analysis of the bill, to which Inhofe bristled, "I can only conclude that they don't want the pubic to know how much money this thing is going to cost."

And cost it will...

Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) said of the coming legislation, "This would be the largest tax increase in the history of America."

Analysts believe the increased taxes and fees will cost the average American household upwards of $1,600 to $3,000 or more each and every year!

Making matters worse, scientists suggest Cap and Trade would have no measurable benefit--except to the federal government.

Robert, when Cap and Trade first appeared on the national scene last year, you took stand with Grassfire, now I'm asking that you help me quickly rally and mobilize 100,000 citizen signers of our national petition opposing what may be the biggest government tax and grab scheme yet!

I fully anticipate liberal lawmakers will aggressively push this bill forward. That's why I must build a strong resistance over the next 10 days.


Please take immediate action by signing the Grassfire petition and take a stand against skyrocketing taxes and increased government control, by clicking here: http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?u=22874&PID=16196735
