We can see change coming. The President-elect and other new leaders in Washington are ready to re-power our economy. There's a real chance now that we can end our addiction to fossil fuels and put Americans to work with good, green jobs.

But we know Big Oil has the money, influence, and friends like Inhofe to throw up roadblocks at every turn. Their war chest is enormous - the three largest U.S. oil companies raked in $71.2 billion in profits so far in 2008 - and some have upped their spending on lobbyists by more than 70% this year.

They're already pressuring our leaders with everything they've got.

Key lawmakers like Inhofe will make critical decisions about whether Big Oil's dirty fingerprints are all over our future energy policy. If we can show that America is watching - with thousands of letters from people like you - we can curb their back-room dealing.

Americans demand an economic recovery that moves us into the future - one built on clean energy and millions of green-collar jobs. For obstructionists like Inhofe, it's time to stand down.
