Hi, all -

Big Oil, Big Coal, and their Congressional allies want to cut funding for safe biking and walking, 
and instead load up the transportation bill with toxic environmental riders 
that gut our nation's environmental laws, ram through Keystone XL, and weaken coal ash regulations. 

Senator Reid can make the difference!!

Pls send a message now to Senator Reid, and to Sen Heller and your Congress rep.

Urge them to oppose these poison pills in the transportation bill - 
especially the giveaway to coal ash.
Add your own message about
 the blowing toxic dust clouds from Reid Gardner coal plant right here in our back yard.

Thank you.

"We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Nature’s inexhaustible sources of energy--sun, wind and tide. I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that."
— Thomas Alva Edison
