While this vote was a discouraging setback, the fight to
protect this spectacular wilderness is not over. Send your Senators and Representatives a message now, telling them to vote against the
forthcoming budget reconciliation package if it includes a provision for
oil drilling in the Arctic Refuge. 

Please visit and send friends to Defenders of Wildlife Web site http://www.savearcticrefuge.org to take action to save one of America's last and greatest truly wild places.
