10 MILLION VOTERS. 25,000 ACTIVISTS. 1 NEW PRESIDENT: GIVE BUSH THE BOOT
Millions of Americans -- 81 percent of voters -- support strong environmental protections. They care about: Clean Water & Air, Wilderness Protections, Endangered Species Protection, Global Warming, Energy alternatives and much, much more!
But the Bush Administration doesn’t agree! With harmful environmental rollbacks proposed nearly every month of his Presidency, "Bush is well on his way to compiling the worst environmental record in the history of our nation," said LCV President Callahan. Now LCV has a plan --with your help -- to do something about it. Sign the pledge below!
Deceptively named initiatives like "Healthy Forests" and "Clear Skies," mask the Bush Administration's agenda of allowing industry to increase their profits at the expense of environmental protection and public health.
It is time that Pro-Environment Americans vote their disapproval in the election of 2004!Just a few of the Rollbacks this year:
May 14, 2003: The EPA proposes delaying new rules to reduce smog, endangering the lives of 47 million Americans living in polluted urban areas. April 11, 2003: The Bush Administration announces that it will restrict the number of acres that are eligible for wilderness protection, potentially allowing development of millions of acres of federal lands. March 25, 2003: The decision to phase out polluting snowmobiles in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks is overturned despite massive public outcry. February 3, 2003: The budget proposal for fiscal year 2004 cuts funding to the EPA, land conservation, and renewable energy programs. January 3, 2003: Certain timber sales are excluded from environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act.
Pledge today to GIVE BUSH THE BOOT! LCV is amassing an army of e-activists to combat the Bush Administration’s assault on the environment. Take action today by pledging to take five e-actions over the next year to elect a pro-environment president in 2004. Sign Below!

Bush has no record of acting on any. The world has clearly united in the fact Global Warming is real and a massive threat. George Bush believes it's fiction. ??? |
