We have only 24 to 48 hours to try and save the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

The Republicans are trying to sneak legislation through the Senate approving oil drilling and they are incredibly close to winning. We have to stop them.

I am joining with Senator Maria Cantwell (D-Washington) in offering a critical amendment to stop this sneak attack on our environment. We will fight on the floor of the Senate, but we need you by our side.

There are seven key Republican Senators whose votes will decide the future of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Before they vote, we need to make sure they know that their constituents are watching, and that they will not be able to support drilling without anybody noticing.

Here are two critical steps we can take together to support our amendment to protect this National Wildlife Refuge:

1. Join the Citizens' Roll Call
First of all, take part in a massive fast-moving display of citizen support for the Arctic Refuge. Sign our Cantwell-Kerry Citizens' Roll Call now.

To make our Citizens' Roll Call impossible to ignore, we have alerted the media, environmental advocates and my fellow Senators to a scrolling display of the names and home towns of the roll call signers. It is posted on our johnkerry.com website, where we hope to soon add your name and a running tally of the number of citizens on our Citizens' Roll Call.

2. Bring the fight to the home states of the seven senators
We need to launch emergency online advertising campaigns in the home states of those seven critical senators: Senator Coleman (MN), Senator Smith (OR), Senator Specter (PA), Senator Martinez (FL), Senator Lugar (IN), and Senators Gregg and Sununu (NH).

We need your help to bring our Save the Arctic Refuge message home in these six states. Help us fund an emergency ad campaign to make sure they know how strongly the people they represent feel about protecting the Arctic. Please make an emergency donation right now.

When Senator Cantwell, myself and other Senators stand up in support of the Cantwell-Kerry Amendment, we will have powerful arguments on our side. (I have recapped some of those arguments at the end of this email message)

But, to win, we need to be able to report directly to our Senate colleagues that massive numbers of citizens around the country - and in their own states - are rising up to demand that the Senate protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

That's why your immediate signature is so critical.

The Bush Administration and its oil industry allies want to send a message that they can drill for oil wherever and whenever they want to - even if it means targeting a place as striking, pristine and irreplaceable as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

They don't care about putting America on a genuine path to energy independence. If they did, they'd support efforts to increase energy conservation and to create clean, renewable sources of energy that no terrorist can sabotage and no foreign government can seize.

Let me be very direct with you. It is going to take an immediate and impossible-to-ignore display of grassroots support to stop them. That's why your decision to sign our Cantwell-Kerry Amendment Citizens' Roll Call is so crucial.

Thank you for acting quickly on this vital request.

John Kerry



P.S. Senator Cantwell, who comes from a state in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, has - at considerable political risk - courageously stepped forward to join me in leading this fight. We need you to help us win it.

HERE ARE YOUR SAVE THE ARCTIC REFUGE TALKING POINTS
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge's 19 million acres comprise one of the last places on earth where an intact expanse of arctic and sub arctic lands remains protected.
Drilling in the Arctic Refuge can't make even a small dent in meeting America's energy needs. U.S. Geological Survey scientists estimate that there is very likely only enough oil to supply America's needs for six months. And oil companies admit that, even that, won't be available for at least 10 years.
An irreplaceable natural treasure, the Arctic Refuge is home to caribou, polar bears, grizzly bears, wolves, golden eagles, snow geese and more. Millions of other birds use the Arctic Refuge to nest and as a critical staging area on their migratory journeys.
Of course, the Arctic Refuge supports more than wildlife. For a thousand generations, the Gwich'in people of Northeast Alaska and Northwest Canada have depended on it and lived in harmony with it. To them, the Arctic Coastal Plain is sacred ground.

Dear Supporter,

We are hours away from the vote to save the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the heat is on thanks to your efforts over the last 24 hours. A vote is expected around 1:00 PM EST and floor debate begins at 10:15 AM EST. Tune in and watch live on C-SPAN2.

In the last 24 hours we have seen an amazing display of our johnkerry.com community's ability to quickly mobilize - and a passionate outpouring of commitment to the Arctic Refuge.

So far, a quarter of a million citizens - more than 260,000 people, have signed our Citizens' Roll Call in support of the Cantwell-Kerry Amendment to prevent the oil drills from invading one of our greatest natural treasures. With the roll call vote in the Senate fast approaching TODAY, we must keep the pressure on - and our Citizens' Roll Call growing.

Just take a LOOK at what I wrote for the Morass of March 2004

Remember Florida: This Time Around in 2004
by Rollenran

Who wants a President who almost died from a pretzel?

George W. Bush's four years are almost up and I can't
wait for him to get out of office. Another four years
of Bush and his administration would drive me up the
wall. In his first day in office alone, the stock
market drastically went down. During his first one
hundred days as President, he undid everything Clinton
worked so hard to get. Bush has done everything for
the Very Rich, who hardly need help, and nothing for
the Middle or Working Classes, who are the people who
need help the most.

There is a ton of unemployment - just don't tell Bush
Jr. He thinks everything is peachy. See, as long as it
does not affect the Powers that Be around him, he does
not care. The only thing this President gave us is a
war. And what about the so-called bombs in Iraq?
Remember those? The reason we sent our 18- to
25-year-old military men and women to Iraq was to find
these bombs in the first place. The UN couldn't find
them, and now, neither can we. Apparently they do
exist, but only in George Bush's imagination. So maybe
they had been looking in the wrong places. Maybe they
need to look through the spider webs in Bush Jr.'s
head to find these imaginary bombs, which they said
were in Iraq.

And we have that "three hundred dollar" tax break, or
whatever that was. See, all that did was remind us how
fucked we are. Bush also lowered environmental
emission standards and I can’t wait for the "air" tax.
And where's Osama Bin Laden? You know, the guy who
orchestrated the bombing on the trade center? Isn't he
the guy we were supposed to really be after?

Now, the media is questioning the issue of whether
Bush Jr. showed up for service in Alabama after
receiving permission to serve there temporarily in
1972-1973 as an Air National Guard pilot. Bush says he
recalls serving there but can we trust his memory? The
White House released hundreds of pages of documents
that give no answers to this issue.

Think about it for a little while. What has Bush done
for you in the past four years? This time around
PLEASE vote smart. Vote for a democrat or someone
besides Bush.

Well its just a dream now 4 more years of hell for me and I live in a Red state too.
