It is high time that the President gets put in check and realizes that CAFE standards and other environmental needs REAL change. The energy bill that still has a chance to be passed with more aggressive standards is under attack from auto lobbyist and other big businesses who would like to see the standards lowered in their own self interest. The coalition I'm working with has set up an easy to use petition so that concerned citizens can get their voice to Congress before the vote and show their support for the 35 mpg by 2020 fuel efficiency standard and other pertinent aspects of the bill. The petition is available here: <a href="http://www.energybill2007.org/" rel="nofollow">www.energybill2007.org</a>. I think America is beginning to realize that the time is now to set institute some real change and we need to let our representatives know. This is great news.
