Welcome and THANK YOU for joining Pickens Plan. Here is how you can help.
EMAIL A LETTER TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES BY USING OUR EASY RED "CONTACT CONGRESS" BUTTON – On the main page…
This is urgent, because the Energy Bill in Congress is in danger of not passing! With little effort, we have the ability here for you to send a letter to our Representatives in Washington and Governor, too. Go to THE PLEDGE (at the very top of this page on the blue header) On the top of the pledge page there are three rectangular buttons- two blue ones and ONE RED BUTTON, that reads "CONTACT CONGRESS" . Fill in the short, standard form. Done!
You CAN ALSO HELP BY BRINGING 5 FOLKS TO JOIN the site today, so that we can build a voice big enough that Congress will finally have to listen to us, instead of the lobbyists and special interests, who are trying to derail this historic effort.
YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE PLEDGE on the main page. Print out 10 or more of them, get them signed and fax them back ASAP. When we are millions strong, we can achieve this.
THERE IS NO TIME TO DELAY
...to wait and see...or to see if someone else will step up to the plate. It is time for US to roll up our sleeves and go to work. Right now momentum is working in our favor, but if gas prices retreat, the public will forget the pain, and our moment may be lost.
FOR MORE INFORMATION
Check out Pickens "August Call to Action"- for a course of action! Here is an informative video "Topeka, Kansas Town Hall Meeting": http://www.pickensplan.com/news/2008/08/04/video-of-the-topeka-town-hall
PERSONAL ACTION OPTIONS
We need to do more than “preach to the choir”. Sharing ideas with each other is encouraging but that will not 1) increase our membership nor 2) influence public policy.
If you know someone in the press or someone who blogs - get them to cover this. Ask those in the public eye to support this plan.
A GROUP FOR EVERYONE Check out the many groups for Solar, CNG, your area, etc. Connect, learn and share. We grow stronger with your input. If you don't see a group that speaks to your interest, then start a group of your own.
PLEASE FRIEND ME so we can keep in touch. I do updates on new member numbers and pertinent info.
Thanks again for joining this historical effort. WE CAN DO THIS…

Hello, my name is Jerry. My family and I live in Grainger County. Northeast of Knoxville. My father invited me to join. I looked up people in my general area and you came up. So thought I would drop a note. If there are any ways we can help you locally, don't hesitate to ask.
Carrie, I'm in favor of doing all possible things to reduce dependance on foreign oil ..... like in the Picken's plan, such as wind, solar, natural gas .... also nuclear energy ... and I think there can be enviromentaly safe ways to recover oil off-shore and in Alaska. The USA has been blessed with a rich supply of oil and I think it can be recovered in a responsible way.
Hi Carrie, please join Rural Americans for change as well if you will. We are based out of Nashville and between the groups hopefully we can cover the state.

Profile Information
Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
Yes
Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
I am interested in alternative fuels, but have seen little progress in Knoxville TN.
What excites you about this campaign?
It makes sense to use local sources of energy. It is less expensive for America and it will be less expensive for me, a consumer. Wind turbines are no uglier than electric poles.
