Tell the Senate to Support Stronger Legislation to Protect Our Oceans.

Dear Senator,

I am writing to urge you to protect our oceans and coasts from the devastating impacts of ocean acidification.

Please, use your votes to improve the Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act. Specifically, I urge you to vote against weakening amendments, and to vote for those that strengthen the bill. Finally, please do whatever you can to make sure the bill gets to the President's desk as soon as possible.

The threat to our oceans, coasts and wildlife is too great to allow more delay. We need to shift to a new energy economy as soon as possible to prevent ocean acidification, and the massive extinction of corals and the fish and marine wildlife that depend on them. Our oceans support fishing and tourism economies and will soon contribute to a new energy economy as well. These economies represent jobs that we can't afford to leave behind.

The United States must protect its oceans and coasts from the catastrophic impacts of ocean acidification. Please help to pass a strong Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act.

The time to act is now.

We will add your signature from the information you provide.
