Subject: Emergency action in Houston
Tomorrow (Thursday), we're organizing an event in Houston to highlight the GOP's extensive ties to Big Oil. We've invited the media, and having a good crowd is critical to show them that voters don't want oil industry gimmicks, they want real solutions like alternative energy to solve our energy crisis. Can you make it?

Dear MoveOn member,
Republicans have been escalating their attacks on Obama and the Democrats over oil drilling, and we need to push back. Can you join us at an emergency action in Houston tomorrow (Thursday)?
House Republicans have been "protesting" ever since Congress adjourned on Friday because Speaker Pelosi blocked their offshore drilling plan. Speaker Pelosi blocked their plan because it won't help lower gas prices—but it will line the pockets of Big Oil executives, the same people donating millions of dollars to Republicans.
But Republicans are working hard to make it seem like they're fighting for cash-strapped commuters—and not the oil companies that want to drill the most.
So tomorrow (Thursday), we're organizing our own action to highlight the GOP's extensive ties to Big Oil, and deliver a petition to our representatives calling for a big switch to clean energy. We've invited the media, and having a good crowd is critical to show them that voters don't want oil industry gimmicks, they want real solutions like alternative energy to solve our energy crisis.
Can you make it?
Here are the details:
What: Petition Delivery to Stop Big Oil Gimmicks and Demand Clean Energy
Where: Rep. Culberson's District Office (in Houston) Houston Office: 10000 Memorial Drive Suite 620 Houston, TX 77024-3490
When: Thursday, Aug. 7, 2008, at 12:00 PM.
