We're off to a good start in both the Senate and House of Representatives with the introduction of the NAT GAS Act of 2009 (H.R. 1835 and S. 1408)...but we have more work to do. During the Congressional break ask your Member of Congress and your two U.S. Senators to become co-sponsors of the NAT GAS Act and help get us off foreign oil.
Please consider joining the Pickens Plan supporter group for Michael Turner's Congressional district OH-03. We are currently asking him to support HR1835 - the natural gas bill. You can make a big difference!
Immediately pick up the telephone Tuesday after 9:00 am and let Congressman Turner and our two Senators know you want them to support the 2009 Economic Stimulus package so that we can begin our journey to a Congressional vote on US Energy Independence. Help keep them focused on the only plan for US Energy Independence on the table: The Pickens' Plan.
Pickens' Plan supporters want:
*Extension of the Production Tax Credit
*Implementation of a renewable infrastructure loan program.
*Extending the Fuel Tax Credit
*Increasing the vehicle tax credit to make natural gas trucks more accessible for heavy and medium duty truck operators.
Congressman Michael Turner - Telephone # (202) 225-6465
Senator Voinovich – Telephone # (202) 224-3353
Senator Brown – Telephone # (202) 224-2315
Please consider joining Pickens' Plan supporter group for District OH03 to learn more about how you can help the US move toward energy independence.

Please consider joining Pickens Plan Group District OH-03 if Michael Turner is your Congressman. We are trying to reach 500 before January 20, 2009. You can make a difference!

HI Sarah
Glad to have you here. Thank you for your offer of meaningful support for this historical effort! Need folks to help push pledges, and Pickens U. Look forward to hearing from you!
400,000 is not 1 million!
Best,
Kim
Welcome and THANK YOU for joining Pickens Plan. Here is how you can help.
EMAIL A LETTER TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES -
This is urgent, because the Energy Bill in Congress is in danger of not passing! We are blessed that the creators of this site have given us the ability, with little effort, 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 will certainly try 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!
