Last week Congressman Brian Bilbray, CA 50 was on The Green Revolution Show at which time he said he supports Pickens Plan. A thank you letter and pledge form were sent out to him that day. We hope to receive his signed pledge form soon. We will be doing our very best to sign up California Legislators, and are hopeful that we will have new supporters onboard in the near future.

Thanks Leslie,

H.R. 1835 is the one we can get passed. We need congressional support in a number of key states. California has been lagging behind, we just got our first Congressman, Ken Calvert to sign the Pledge, he is a cosponsor of 1835. We have 5 Californians as cosponsors, and should take time to send them a thank you email. We need to contact every member of the house and senate to get 1835 passed. It is my understanding the senate version will be introduced July 8th. Maybe Pickens Plan Headquarters can come up with a letter that could be sent to the entire house and senate with our signatures on each of them. Think I will send an email to find out. Thanks for the info on 2425, the results are not surprising. Let's see what happens next. Think we can score a big win on 1835 if we are all in.
