STOP $54 BILLION NUCLEAR GIVEAWAY
WRITE CONGRESS NOW
CALL ON THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25 (note date change)
YOUR ACTIONS MATTER!
February 22, 2010
Dear Friends,
President Obama wants to triple the loan program for construction of new nuclear reactors, to $54 billion.
As we pointed out last week, these are not loan "guarantees"--they are direct taxpayer loans to wealthy nuclear utilities from the government's Federal Financing Bank. And this is just a proposal--it's not a done deal.
We won't let him get away with it.
*If you haven't written your House member yet (and most of you haven't!), please do so here now.
*We have a new letter for your Senators. Write them here, now.
*On Thursday, February 25, join National Call-Congress Day and call your Representatives and your Senators. Tell them to stop the tripling of the nuclear loan program. You can reach all of your Congressmembers at 202-224-3121. Or, note that when you write your Senators and Representative, the direct phone numbers for most of them pop up. Just write those numbers down.
