Stack of Petitions at Sen. Reid's Office

    On Tuesday, February 14, representatives from a coalition of over 30 environmental and progressive groups delivered more than 800,000 messages to Senator Reid and Senator McConnell urging them to block attempts to resurrect the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline.

    The messages were collected as part of a 24-hour drive to send the Senate more than half a million messages opposing the pipeline. The 500,000 message goal was surpassed in just 7 hours.

      You did not apparently heed the warning "please consider the environment" before printing those.

      What, are they trying to block the pipeline physically, with their printed emails? Thumbdrives, guys.

      Excellent work!! We don't need dirty pipelines, we need more clean renewable energy to drive down the cost of non-renewables which will increase in cost as supply runs lower. The more clean renewable tech improves, the cheaper the cost. Think people, think!

      what we definitely don;t need is a big oil, big money, foreign corporation bullying their way through our government, our country, & our water supply with their toxic dirty oil just so they can make mega millions.on the world market. Thanks everyone for the great job of collecting all those signatures.
