* Protect Your Water!*
January 30, 2009
Dear Anthony,
Tell your
Senators<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=gak9sQgwDSDsa%2Fr%2FfzA3ZGYOWapJKXnJ>
and the White House,
"We MUST have sufficient funding to fix our water infrastructure."
<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=NviQgw3G9aEdWxEVY6D1EGYOWapJKXnJ>
Fix our pipes!
<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=w%2Fz7UQ%2Fl%2BBHt6Pg0x5AqN2YOWapJKXnJ>
You have the power!
Together we can restore the funds for our water and sewer systems.
Right *NOW* you can act to protect the quality of water coming into
your home and to help stimulate your local economy. Write your Senators
immediately<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=JTR4AT0vOGlFkblYnBld6WYOWapJKXnJ>.
The clock is ticking on the $800 billion stimulus package which is headed to
the Senate. Your
action<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=zSu4QMKLyCGpAdB1iL0YT1TEUhNkBF6k>is
needed to help secure funding for our water infrastructure, funding
for
which has been drastically slashed in Congress during the past week. The
funding is needed to rebuild the systems that keep your water safe and
create jobs in your community.
Because of your commitment to water activism, we are asking EVERY SINGLE ONE
OF YOU to speak out in the next 48 hours. Without your support, the
opportunity will pass. A week from now will be too late; we must act now to
have our voices heard. Tell your Senators and the White
House<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=cL3dH3f3%2FstzUh%2BRgy%2FKSVTEUhNkBF6k>that
funding must be restored to the original levels for water
infrastructure work.
The timeframe is short; the need, critical. Can we count on your help? Write
now.<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=8XGXKLL8mdObvPg0nXjKvWYOWapJKXnJ>
