Important Update. We are being heard, but this is not over!

[#1]

I just received a copy of a letter sent from Congressmen Joe Barton and George Radonovich to The Honorable Henry A. Waxman, Chairman of the Committee on Energy and Commerce.

They have received 1000s of letters and emails, and are citing the cause of the independent producer. They are calling for a hearing to advocate a delay in implementation of the law, a "fine tuning" of the policies.

Hey, faxzero.com works great! I've never used it before. I just sent a fax to Waxman's Washington office, going to send one to his LA office as well.

I called. The guy I spoke to in Barton's office was super nice. Asked for my name & address, and told me he would personally deliver the message.

Thank you Matt!
I just called both the Reps to thank them. One aid seemed so surprised to be getting a positive phone call - maybe he doesn't get too many of them. ;)
