America's energy challenge

now rests with the EPA.

The NRECA has updated the www.ourenergy.coop website with a new take action message, moving to a message that asks individuals to contact members of Congress to support measures to block the EPA from moving forward with their efforts to control carbon emissions.

There are currently a number of bills and/or resolutions in Congress that have been introduced to block the EPA from moving forward on this issue. The NRECA supports all of these measures, and -- in one form or another -- all of Nebraska’s delegation is co-sponsoring at least one of them. Right now, since Nebraska’s delegation is already signed onto at least one of these bills, we are content with our position and plan to let the situation develop before we call out the grassroots. This issue is changing daily, with new bills being introduced and more representatives coming out in support for these measures. In fact, Congressman Rick Boucher (D-Va.) introduced his own bill yesterday which may see significant support in the House of Representatives. The NRECA is still moving forward with its grassroots push to try to get as many representatives as possible to co-sponsor these bills in order to put some pressure on the White House.

But we must be ready and remain alert. So you can still enroll in the Our Energy Our Future campaign www.ourenergy.coop, because somebody in Washington, D.C., or in Lincoln, Neb., may need to hear your voice in the very near future.
