Subject: Senator McCain Gets a Zero -- Tell Your Newspaper
Dear Tom,
Two weeks ago John McCain was the only Senator to duck a
crucial vote on the future of clean energy in America -- dooming to failure
the measure that would have helped make renewable energy more affordable and
accessible. Now it turns out this missed vote is part of a pattern.
Last week, the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) released
the 2007 National Environmental Scorecard giving Senator McCain a score of
ZERO. According to the scorecard, McCain was the only member of Congress to
skip all 15 crucial environmental votes scored by LCV.
Can you help spread the word about McCain's 0% environmental
voting record and write a letter to the editor? The opinion page is widely
read in most communities -- and a well-placed letter can reach a broad
audience. We've included sample text to get you started.
McCain's LCV score exposes the real record behind the
rhetoric -- a lifetime LCV score of 24, a history of siding with the
polluters and special interests, and a consistent pattern of ducking
important environmental votes.
Let's place thousands of letters in papers around the country.

Thanks for taking action.
Sincerely,
Carl Pope
