The People Email Network Energy Bill ACTION Alert

This year again the administration is trying to deliver a huge payoff to their
corrupt oil company campaign contributors, absolving them of any future
liability for polluting our water supplies with MTBE, an insidious smelly
solvent infiltrating water systems all over the country. Let me get this
straight, the oil industry, who is rolling in so much windfall profits cash
their biggest problem is they don't know what to do with it, THAT oil industry
can't afford to clean up after their environmental disasters. This measure
barely passed the house but not in the Senate and will now be settled in
conference.

With such shaky support, those pushing for this mammoth act of corporate welfare
are offering to create some kind of fund that oil companies will "contribute" to
in some kind of LIMITED way, and the rest of us just get to pick up the rest of
their tab, whatever that might be. And if that wasn't outrageous enough, we now
discover that hidden in the energy bill like some stealth elephant is repeal of
the original Public Utilities Holding Company Act, the last thing standing
between our public utilities and worst kind of speculators, like nobody's
supposed to notice or Enron never happened. We still have time to raise a howl
about all this, so please use the action page below to do so

What they did to grease this hit job on the PUHCA was to propose that oversight
responsibility be shifted to the director of FERC, who just HAPPENS to be a
hardcore administration crony. Yes, you heard right, yet another wolf put in
charge of administrating the dismantling of the Hen Protection Act, this one a
key member of Cheney's SECRET TASK FORCE who wrote the energy bill itself. It
gives incentives to mostly the wrong people, does nothing to promote real
conservation to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, will decimate the sea life
off our coasts with excruciating sonic booms in preparation for destroying even
more of our coastal environment, and all instead of making renewables the urgent
policy priority they should be.
