Welcome to the Indiana 3rd Congressional District Group for the New Energy Army! If you live in IN-03, please join us to learn more about Pickens Plan events and activities taking place in our District.
Welcome!
I am one of the welcome wagon crew. We are all volunteers. Out of sheer numbers I greet daily I have a paste and copy note.
It is not intended to overwhelm you, just give you a direction and some contacts.
We are a voluntary community of individuals who are placing our combined support behind T. Boone Pickens and his efforts to bring to light; (we cannot afford put this on the back burner) again a clear (heard) message that we must reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign oil through the use of all domestic energy alternatives. This site is a place to interact with fellow Pickens Plan supporters, keep up with events and opportunities to help get more involvement.
*************Please, I ask the first sites you visit to get accurate info and articles to see pretty much what the plan is about and where the plan stands, and please come back to these sites often as changes take place regularly. Some are long, please; take the time to get all the details.

There is a group for almost everything. The Forums/discussions on this site are many and you’ll probably find something that interests or concerns you. Some are very long and were started months ago. For the ones that concern you, please keep in mind, events are remembered and relayed differently by those commenting, which as we all too well know equals at least three sides to the event.

The Community feels this is the best way to get the attention of state and federal lawmakers. Kim Anderson has other types of sign-up sheets. This is a great way to let lawmakers know of your interest in the reduction of foreign oil.
Please tell friends to check out the site and read the Pledge.

What excites you about this campaign?
Living in Elkhart Indiana, Mr. Obama's showcase for highest National Unemployment figures, I have long thought this to be the perfect opportunity for investors such as Mr. Pickens to utilize the wide choice of abandened factory buildings here and the technology locally to produce CNG fuel Vehicles to directly compete with Detroit's gasoline users. We are located in a perfect spot for this. The magnificent HMMVEE And H2 vehicles are built 3 miles from Me. I know the work force would be here. Honda makes a CNG fueled vehicle and maybe others and Hondas are built nearby near Columbus, Ohio with a O.E.M. supplier in a nearby town from here. So this campaign exites me in this way that I could help in the re-vitalization of this local economy.
What do you want to do to help?
Since I am a laid off RV worker I don't expect to be able to help much financially, but possible Networking capacity.
