> UPDATE: U.S. Senate to bring Warner/Lieberman Bill to the floor in the beginning of June

The Climate Security Act is moving forward to the Senate floor, and we need your help. Please write to Senator Webb encouraging his support of Senator Warner's legislation to address climate change.

The vote will be close, so your input in the next month is critical. Write to Sen. Webb and encourage him to vote yes on S. 2191 to limit carbon emissions and to spur technology advances and job creation. Also, thank Sen. Warner for his leadership.
