Jim’s Op-Ed on Earth Day

Jim has an op-ed in this morning's Connecticut Post on building a green economy in CT-04.

And this email just went out to supporters:

Dear Friend,

  Today is Earth Day, a day to remember the fact that our stewardship of this planet is the primary legacy we will leave all of our children.

As I argue in an opinion piece in today's Connecticut Post, now is the time for us to act decisively to ensure that our state is a leader in green collar jobs, and that our children have the opportunity to live in a healthy and sustainable world.

We need to act together in order to face this huge challenge.

Please take a minute now to invite your friends, neighbors, and family to join us in this collective effort, and then let us know your thoughts. Help us reach 100 new people today:

We all realize that the health of our planet is an issue that affects every aspect of our lives, and which deserves our attention every single day. We are mired in a financial mess brought on by Bush-Shays economic policies and mired in a disastrous war brought on by Bush-Shays foreign policy.

And there are other huge challenges on the horizon, so many of which are tied to climate change, our nation's energy policy, and our planet's very survival.

When I'm in Congress, not a single day will go by where I don't stop to reflect on this basic truth.  To get there, I need your help.

The time to act is now. If we are going to make progress, we need more allies on our team, and I'm counting on you to help spread the word.

Can you think of a co-worker, neighbor, friend, or family member who cares as much as you do about our country's future - our economy, our planet? Please forward today's Op-Ed to them and ask them to join you on our team:

Thanks,
