***REMINDER***
The Pickens Plan website has a lot of groups dedicated to lively discussion on energy issues and policy. For this particular group, please try to keep all comments and discussions focused on ideas and tactics for accomplishing our district’s goals. We may occasionally veer off topic, and that’s fine within reason, but let’s try and keep our eyes on the prize. Thank you!

Comment by Chantel Turner on April 3, 2009 at 6:38pm: All - One of the district leaders had an idea for a nationwide earth day rally/sign-up/etc.. What are your thoughts on this. Earth day is April 22nd, so I feel there may not be enough time to organize something - but I love the idea!

Comment by Renee Klink on April 3, 2009 at 11:17am: District members, we’re at the third and final day of the Virtual March, and today we are focusing on getting action on a bill to establish a 21st century transmission system and a National Renewable Electricity Standard (RES). As Boone points out, twenty-eight states now have an RES – which directs electric utilities to produce a set percentage of their power using alternative sources by a date certain.

Let’s make a great final push. Please use this link to contact Congress and the President again today and send a message to them about renewable energy! Thanks to all who have participated in the Virtual March this week!

Comment by Renee Klink on April 2, 2009 at 8:50am: Thanks to all of you who have taken action in the Virtual March so far! It’s Day Two, and the focus today is on oil imports -- the March 2009 numbers show we imported 65 percent of the oil we used -- so let’s contact our Members of Congress again today about reducing America’s dependency on foreign oil. You can do this by phone, of course, and we have also set up links to e-mail Congress or contact your members via Facebook and Twitter about today's issue.

When you’ve done this, please leave a note here on our group page to let other members know you’ve taken action, and tell us if you received any information or feedback from the members’ offices.

Also, if you are a business owner or part of an organization that would like to take part in the Virtual March, please let me know and we’ll recognize you as a partner on the Pickens Plan Virtual March page!

Comment by Renee Klink on April 1, 2009 at 1:02pm: Thanks, Chantel, for sharing information on the virtual march with district group members!

Among other actions, we're encouraging everyone to send a single e-mail today, tomorrow, and Friday. It’s a simple thing to do, but it has tremendous impact.

Click here to ask Congress and President Obama to support the NAT GAS Act of 2009.

Thank you for your support.

Comment by Chantel Turner on April 1, 2009 at 5:58am: Hello All in Florida District 04. Today is Day 1 of the Virtual March on Washington. I urge everybody to email everybody they know and invite them to sign up TODAY....

Comment by Renee Klink on March 4, 2009 at 9:54am: Hi district members, have you signed up for the Virtual March on Washington yet? It's April 1-3. We want to continue to have an impact on how the Administration formulates American energy policy, and the Army will focus its energy during those three days on e-mails, calls and faxes to every Member of Congress.

Click here for more information about the Virtual March! And let's all make the commitment to recruit 10 other people to take part.

Comment by Chantel Turner on February 25, 2009 at 11:29am: Great Job Mr. Kaiser. I am glad that you are writting to Mr. Crenshaw directly. Please feel free to share any response that you may get with the FL-04 Group. We would be glad to read it.

Comment by g. kaiser on February 25, 2009 at 11:14am: I just sent a letter to Crenshaw about pushing the use of the stimulus bill to convert all state, city, and county cars, buses, and trucks to National Gas. He needs to show some practical leadership. This would save the state a lot of money in fuel and auto repair. All cities and county governments use central depots for fuel. These could easily be converted to National Gas. So, sourcing the natural gas isn't a problem for any central depot fuel based govt. vehicle. It would greatly help clean up the air and save money. I hope you write crenshaw to make this a top priority with the Stimulus Bill dollars coming to Florida. We can be the best example for this aspect of the Boone plan.
