Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC): Tell Congress: Don’t Give a Dime to Cut Wildlife’s Lifeline!
Congress has the power to stop the Bush Administration from undermining the Endangered Species Act. Tell your Senators and Representative to block funding for this disastrous scheme, so that it can’t be carried out.

Progressive Democrats of America (PDA): More Drilling is Not the Answer to High Gas Prices
With gas prices at record levels, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has felt public concern and agreed to debate expanding oil drilling as part of an energy package that will also include clean energy and measures for immediate relief. By putting everything on the table, the Speaker expects clean energy to show its superior merits. Because a vote on extending the Congressional moratorium on offshore oil exploration is due—and is not expected to pass–permitting a small amount of new drilling for now can save the moratorium on all others areas.

Save Our Environment.org: Save the Endangered Species Act!
The Bush administration wants to severely weaken the Endangered Species Act – we need your help to make sure this doesn’t happen. For more than 30 years, the ESA has been a safety net for plants and animals on the brink of extinction, including grizzly bears, bald eagles, and gray whales, but now President Bush wants to gut these protections.

The Wilderness Society: National Call-In Day for Energy Solutions
The House of Representatives is expected to vote on an energy plan as early as this week. With the “drill baby drill” mantra taking root, the debate will certainly turn to offshore oil drilling and could include oil shale development, even drilling in the Arctic Refuge! Please call Congress today. Or, if you absolutely cannot call, please send an email.
