America's Arctic Refuge Needs You!
During your lunch break on Tuesday, Sept. 20, join thousands of citizens from across the country and send a message to Congress: Save the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge!
* Congress is about to vote on whether to open the Arctic Refuge to oil drilling.
* There are some places that should be off-limits to oil drilling… and the Arctic Refuge is one of them.
* Tell Congress to protect the Arctic Refuge – for wildlife, for the Gwich'in native people, for our children!
Join the rally from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the West Lawn (facing the Mall) of the Capitol. For more information, log onto www.arcticrefugeaction.org.
