I wish this were an April Fools Day joke, but it?s not. Today, the Bush/Cheney Administration announced that it will waive environmental and land management laws along 470 miles of the U.S./Mexico border.

Laws ensuring clean water for us and our children? Dismissed. Laws protecting wildlife, land, rivers, streams and places of cultural significance? Disregarded. And laws giving American citizens a voice in the process? Gone.

Clearly, this is out of control.

Please call your U.S. Representative and Senators at the phone numbers provided below:



Stephanie Tubbs Jones - (202) 225-7032 or (216) 522-4900



George V. Voinovich - (202) 224-3353 or (614) 469-6697
Sherrod C. Brown - (202) 224-2315 or (216) 522-7272

Once you?re connected, please deliver this simple message:

?My name is Kris Lennon and I?m calling from Cleveland to voice my shock and outrage about the Bush Administration?s announcement today that it will waive important environmental and land use laws along 470 miles of the U.S./Mexico border.

This flagrant abuse of power threatens border communities and wildlife. I urge you to do everything in your power to challenge this awful decision.?

Important: Please let us know that you called. Report your call now.

We can't allow the Bush/Cheney Administration to unilaterally disregard laws that protect the health and safety of our families and communities and preserve America?s wildlife and wild places for future generations.

Please call your elected officials right now.

Any news on this? I haven't heard the latest.
