PG&E ACTION 1/31

by c. kalish (FWD) (chkalish [at] ix.netcom.com)
Caravan to Sacramento today to Extricate California taxpayers from rescuing failed private corporations

Sent: Monday, January 29, Subject: CALL TO ACTION IN SACRAMENTO

VP Dick Cheney today joined Gray Davis and PG&E in the plunder of California.

We've got a battle on our hands. If we are going to win it, we need you to participate NOW !

The legislature is going to vote for this bond bailout bill this week - unless we do something about it.

They and the governor, and now the Bush/Chaney administration, are about to
force us to invest billions of dollars of our money into a bankrupt greed-ridden corporation - and force us to endure additional outrageous rate hikes to boot.

Join us in a caravan to Sacramento to meet with designated elected officials.

When: Wednesday, January 31

Where: Arriving in Sacramento by 11 AM
How: We will divide up into teams and meet with designated legislators in their offices.

Our Strategy: We will demand that our elected officials:

* Refuse any and all bailouts

* Extricate California taxpayers from rescuing failed private corporations

* Find solutions that act in the best interest of California taxpayers

* Join forces with representatives of The Utility Reform Network,
Consumer's Union, and with Harvey Rosenfield's organization to identify
thoughtful, pragmatic solutions that act in the best interest of California
taxpayers.

* Pay attention to the people who voted for them not to the executives of monopolies intent on feeding yet again at the public trough

If you can join us in this endeavor in any way, please contact me at this return email address ASAP.

Thank you.

Campaign Against Utility Rate Hikes
by LINDA R. SAFLEY (lindasafley [at] hotmail.com)
WE HERE ON THE EAST COAST REALIZE THAT THE DEREGULATION IS NOT WORKING AS IT STANDS. WE ALL SHOULD DEMAND CLEAN ENERGY NOW! OUR EARTH IS IN DANGER, THE WORST DROUGHTS OF THE CENTUARY, THE WORST NIGHTMARE OF WEATHER, AND IT'S COSTING US A FORTUNE TO STAY WARM, AND TO HAVE HOT WATER, AND OUR BUSINESSES, ARE DROWNING US IN DEBTS. LET'S ALL GET A BIT WISER, AND GET OFF THE NUCLEAR POWER THING, AND START PUTTING FUNDS INTO RE-NEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES, GEARED FOR NOT DROWNING US INTO LOW-LEVAL RADIOACTIVE WASTE.
COAL, OIL, AND GAS, ARE THE MAIN STAYS, OIL SPILLS ARE DESTROYING OUR WILDLIFE, AND STILL YET THE DEPENDACY ON FOREIGN OIL DROWNS US. WELL, I FOR ONE AM SICK AND TIRED OF THE EXCUSES, OUR LITTLE ANIMALS HAVE A RIGHT TO LIVE ON THIS PLANET, AND OPEC JUST DOSEN'T CARE ABOUT OIL SPILLS.
AND THEY BETTER STAY OUT OF THE ANTARTIC!
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
