A STATEWIDE CALL TO ACTION TO ALL CONCERNED KANSANS!!
Please forward this email to your networks! Join us Wednesday April 30th in Topeka to show our support for Kansas' clean energy future! PBS Frontline will be there to film the KS coal controversy.
As lawmakers return to Topeka next week for the fast-moving "veto wrap-up" session, an attempted override of the Governor's veto of SB 327 and SB 148 is expected to take place upon arrival at the Capitol. A two-thirds vote is required in both the Senate and House to do so. And while the Senate stands poised to deliver more than the votes necessary to override, proponents of both bills in the House have twice fallen short of gaining the 84 votes needed. But time and political pressuring have worn on some legislators, and facing the end of the session, some seem prepared to cast their vote in support of the bill in order to simply put the energy debate behind them.
We MUST let those lawmakers who are waffling know that this is no issue to simply "put behind them" - that energy policy isn't ONE of the pivotal issues facing Kansas, it is THE issue.**CALL TO ACTION!**JOIN TOGETHER TO ENSURE AN ENERGY FUTURE THAT BENEFITS ALL KANSANS - TODAY, TOMORROW, AND IN GENERATIONS TO COMEWHEN: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 2008
BEGINNING AT 9 a.m., WE WILL FILL THE HALLS OF THE CAPITOL, LETTING LEGISLATORS KNOW THAT WHILE THEY MAY BE RETURNING TO SETTLE OLD POLITICAL SCORES, WE ARE THERE TO CELEBRATE THE FIRST DAY OF A NEW ENERGY FUTURE! TOGETHER, AFTERWARDS, WE WILL ATTEND THE FULL SESSION OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, FOLLOWED BY THE OPPORTUNITY TO DRAFT AND SEND A LETTER TO YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER'S EDITOR. THE DAY ENDS WHEN YOU MEET WITH YOUR LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE.WHERE: KANSAS CAPITOL BUILDING 3rd floor elevator,TOPEKAWHAT: OUR DAY TO MAKE A FINAL DEMAND OF LAWMAKERS: UPHOLD THE GOVERNOR'S VETOES.
Energy policy cuts across political divides. It affects all ages, each of our communities, and those of every ideological view. We have made a powerful statement so far, but one incredible opportunity remains. Join us next Wednesday in Topeka to show lawmakers that 84 votes is no match for the voice of ONE Kansas. If you have offered your time previously, your continued support is much needed - bring someone new this time if you can. If you simply can no longer stand to sit back and watch as powerful interests seek to undermine Kansas' future prosperity - then make your first act to be a part of this historic day. There is no time to wait. Make the commitment to a new future for Kansas.
ONE DAY.
ONE KANSAS.
