Do You Care About the Planet?

If you care about the earth at all--then read the email I recently received--and make the right decision: Vote against Romney:

Big polluters now have their dream ticket for the presidency.
With Romney's rhetoric and Ryan's record, it's clear what's top on their agenda: big profits for big polluters. Big Coal and Big Oil are going to pull out all the stops to make sure their friends win the presidency, the vice presidency, and dozens of House and Senate races all across the country.

In the race for the White House and control of Congress, big polluters are playing to win. Chip in with a donation of $5, $10 or more and help us fight back against the dirty money and dirty policies of the big polluters and their candidates this election.
With the one-two punch of Romney-Ryan, big polluters like the Koch brothers see a future where they can destroy our air and water protections. But it doesn't stop there.

Big polluters have good friends in congressional races in Ohio and California, in the Senate race in Massachusetts, and in other contests all across the country. Candidates like Dan Lungren, Heather Wilson -- and Paul Ryan -- think polluter profits should trump clean air and water, and the health and safety of our communities.

Paul Ryan and other candidates are fighting to keep massive taxpayer subsidies for big polluters that want to run dangerous pipelines through our neighborhoods.

They're promising to roll back the historic protections from toxic mercury pollution, putting thousands of lives every year at risk.

Romney, Ryan, and dozens of others are undermining the clean-energy companies that employ tens of thousands of Americans and are helping our country move away from dirty energy.
The Sierra Club is pulling back the curtain and showing America which candidates are bankrolled by Big Oil and Big Coal. We're helping elect environmental champions by recruiting thousands of volunteers in competitive races all across the country. And we're cutting through the political noise to share the truth about candidates' environmental records. Your support makes all that -- and more -- possible this election season.

We can't match Big Oil and Big Coal dollar-for-dollar in this election. But when we fight and effectively use our grassroots network to get the word out about these vital issues, we will win. Thanks for all you do to protect our environment,

Cathy Duvall

Sierra Club Political Director
