The Arctic Refuge is in danger again – oil industry allies in
Congress will stop at nothing to open it up to drilling.
In the next two weeks, oil industry allies in Congress are
expected to try a sneaky backdoor trick: inserting their
unpopular proposal to drill for oil in the Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge in a must-pass bill – the federal budget bill.
Click the link below now send a message to your members of
Congress demanding that they do everything in their power to
keep the drilling proposal OUT of the budget bill.
A lot is riding on this decision.
This incomparable wilderness is habitat to more than 250 animal
species, including wolves, grizzlies, caribou and millions of
migrating birds. It is also the subject of an intense lobbying
campaign by the oil industry. Unless we stop them, this
world-class wilderness will become a vast oil development field.
We need to make some noise! If we can draw enough attention to
this issue, we can stop oil industry allies in Congress from
getting away with this attempt to slip Arctic drilling into the
budget bill.

Our ability to prevent drilling in the Arctic Refuge will depend
on how fast we can spread the word and how much “buzz” we can
create.
So get out there and raise a ruckus! Once you’ve taken action,
forward this email message to at least 10 friends. With your
help, we’ll make sure millions of Americans know about this
sneak attack.
