Dear Martin,
Theyve reached a deal with the automakers the same automakers who are investing millions of dollars in lawsuits to prevent states from selling cleaner cars.Congress will take a vote on this in a few days.Let them know TODAY that they should only vote YES on the bailout if it stamps out the auto companies lawsuits against state Clean Car laws.Climate Solutions helped pass Washington and Oregon’s Clean Cars bills that will ensure cleaner, more fuel efficient cars are sold in both states starting next year.But, the auto industry has been suing to prevent us from putting this into action. Please call the Congressional Hotline and tell them you want to leave a message for your senators, congressman and for Congressman Barney Frank.
Hotline:(202) 224-3121Here is the message: Vote YES on the bailout ONLY if it stamps out the auto companies lawsuits against state Clean Car laws**.**
