LEGISLATION: CALL: Renewable Electricity Standard Act of 2013 S. 1595 Introduced 10/29/13 by Sen. Tom Udall Referred to Committee


I think I know why this bill has failed to make it out of committee.  Thanks, Big Oil.  Can you help us transition to a renewable economy, instead?   This is one of the most important pieces of legislation in our nation's and world's history to show the world that America has become a leader in the critical transition from dirty energy that has caused so many sorrows of the 20th century….into a brave, courageous leader able and  willing to guide the many toward a more positive future….instead of destroying U.S. with catastrophic climate change….and dirty energy too costly and difficult to access.

We need leaders of vision and wisdom able and willing to lead U.S. toward a more renewable economy of, by, for All 100% to share now and generations from now:
