Schumer and Gillibrand voted to give Obama and his EPA unprecedented power. Hinchey is likewise a rubber stamp of the Obama/Pelosi/Reid power grab. Vote them out in November. As your freedoms are eroded government powers grow and expand. Call Schumer and Gillibrand and express your opposition to their tyrannical BS.
Grassfire Nation Update
Cap and Tax Scheme
6/11/2010
We’ve just learned that Lisa Murkowski’s (SJ Res. 26) —
a resolution that would have removed any authority the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had in enacting
mandates, taxes and fees based on the greenhouse gas
findings was defeated Thursday by a vote of 53-47.
According to reports, all Republicans supported the
amendment, along with six Democrats, including: Sens.
Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor (D-AR), Evan Bayh,
(D-IN), Mary Landrieu (D-LA) Jay Rockefeller, (D-WV),
and Ben Nelson (D-NE).
The loss opens the door for President Obama to usurp
the authority of the Senate to enact his massive
Climate Change legislation by pushing it though the
EPA under the “Clean Air Act.”
As one global warming proponent said, “Passage of the
[Murkowski] resolution would have dealt a severe blow
to Obama’s plan to pass climate change legislation this
year.”
Robert, that all changes now!
If your Democrat Senators were not among those listed
above, call them today and express your anger over
their vote and support of Obama’s Climate Change plan.
Sen. Schumer 202-224-6542
Sen. Gillibrand 202-224-4451
+ + Emboldened Obama to Push Climate Change Legislation
There’s no question that this vote will embolden Obama
to aggressively push his “Cap and Tax” climate legislation
in the weeks to come.
We must be ready to counter and short-circuit his actions
by rallying support against legislation that has been
described by some experts as an “economic death blow”
resulting in lost jobs and skyrocketing annual taxes.

Hi Barbara,
Thanks for your comment. I posted an email from Kirsten Gillibrand on 3 of my sites yesterday. I thought I had also placed it on my Rhinebeck, District 20 NY and Kingston sites as well. I just updated these other 3.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, wrong for the US, wrong for New York.
