Nukes In the News, 2007 Version

The latest from Working Assets...

Working Assets has joined with musicians Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, Ben Harper and Bonnie Raitt on a petition to Congress to prevent a costly bailout of the nuclear power industry.

Please act now to help us remove a clause from a pending Energy Bill that could force taxpayers to underwrite construction of an unknown number of new nuclear power plants. Instead, the bill should fund the renewable and efficiency technologies that can solve global warming, guarantee a secure economy, and create millions of jobs.

Sign the petition to Congress and stop the pending nuclear power industry bailout.

It's essential that you take action now. Our petition will be delivered by the artists to Congress on October 23. When you sign our petition, you can also include your mobile number. We'll send you a text message when a vote on nuclear energy subsidies is imminent that will connect you to talking points from Bonnie Raitt and then to your Congressional representatives.

The artists have created video to help get the word out about the issue. Please take action, sign up for mobile text messages, and then share the campaign and the video with your friends.

Thank you for working to build a better world.
