I have just learned that Pelosi and key Democrats have struck yet another back-room deal to force a floor vote massive cap-and-trade Carbon Tax to the House this Friday. I am willing to bet Representative Ellsworth will vote the way Pelosi tells him to vote. We must let every member of the House know that citizens do NOT want yet another enormous tax and government bureaucracy!
Oppose their massive carbon taxing scheme! I am asking everyone to take immediate action in two ways:
#1 -- Send Faxes Now!

Call your Rep today!

Your Representative: Rep. Ellsworth 202-225-4636
Other key House leaders or undecideds to call:
Rep. Collin Peterson (Ag Committee Chair): 202-225-2165(Peterson just caved and is now supporting the bill)
Rep. Tim Holden (Ag Cmmtte Vice Chair): 202-225-5546

Rep. David Scott (GA): 202-225-2939
Talking Points:
1. I oppose the cap-and-trade Carbon Tax. This is an outrageous power grab by the federal government that will greatly expand government control and increase energy costs for my family.
2. This system of "allocations" has failed in Europe and will politicize America's energy policy.
3. Especially in these difficult economic times, Congress must not pass this tax on the American people!
Thanks for taking a stand!
Add these Republicans to the list of people to call about Cap and Trade.
Tell them to vote no on H.R. 2454.

Rep. Brad Ellsworth, bucked his party by voting "no" on cap-and-trade legislation Friday, despite being personally lobbied by President Barack Obama. The House of Representatives approved the America’s Climate Security Act by a vote of 219-212
