Randall, Im pulling an all-nighter. Tonight, we are going to break the wall of silence about climate change in Congress. More than 25 U.S. Senators will be urging Congress to wake up to climate change on the Senate floor tonight -- some of us staying up all night to do it. This is the first effort of a new Climate Action Task Force that Barbara Boxer and I announced at the beginning of this year -- an effort to break through the lies of Big Coal and Big Oil and finally galvanize our colleagues to acknowledge an undeniable truth: climate change is real. Im teaming up with some of climate sciences strongest allies in the Senate: Senators Boxer, Franken, Heinrich, Schatz, and Udall, and supporters throughout the country, to urge Congress to take action on climate change. You have the power to help fight climate change, too. Add your voice to this wake-up call and urge Congress to take action on climate change. Join the action at WakeUpToClimateChange today. Ive worked hard to wake up my colleagues in Congress to take action on perhaps the greatest long-term threat facing our country and our planet. But, despite the overwhelming evidence of the realities of climate change, Congress has so far failed to do anything about it -- lulled by polluting special interests. We need to send a clear message that the American people want Congress to wake up. More than 25 of my colleagues will be speaking out tonight, and a number of us will stay up all night on the Senate floor urging our Congress to take action to reduce the dangerous effects of carbon. When its 3 a.m. and Im calling on my colleagues to take action, I want to know youre with me. Your support and the support of thousands of others across the country will help carry me -- and fellow members of the Climate Action Task Force -- through the dawn. Lets stand together now. Help show an outpouring of public support for Congressional action on climate change and power this essential conversation on climate through the night. Tell me youre with me and add your voice to this wake-up call. Help sound the alarm in Congress today by taking action at WakeUpToClimateChange. I hope you will join me today in taking action, and I hope I can count on your enthusiastic support moving forward. Thanks for all you do, Sheldon Whitehouse U.S. Senator TAKE ACTION » This email was sent to redm5954@rocketmail. Click here to unsubscribe.
