Dear MoveOn member,

Here's the bad news: Gas prices hit a record high around Memorial Day and show no sign of declining anytime soon.

Here's the good news: Already, 500,000 people have signed last week's petition asking Congress to make gas price gouging illegal. The American people have had enough, and it's time for a change.

But Big Oil is fighting new legislation tooth and nail, and the Senate is voting on an anti-price gouging bill in just two weeks. If we can reach 750,000 names, we'll hand deliver the petition to Congress to remind them we're watching.


Can you sign our petition telling Congress to pass a strong price gouging bill—and then pass this email on to your friends?

Big Oil will stop at nothing to protect their profits, and they've got lobbyists all over Capitol Hill.

When the House passed a price gouging bill last week, the oil companies got language added at the last minute that makes the bill difficult to enforce.


But the new Congress has Big Oil worried. They started running ads last week to scare people into thinking that federal legislation will actually raise prices. As the Houston Chronicle reported:

The radio ads are part of a media campaign the trade group is funding, hoping to swat down calls for a new windfall profits tax on the oil industry and at fending off legislation to make price gouging at the pump a federal crime.1

The oil companies are out of control, but we're on to them. A lot of folks are already stretched to the limit, and these high gas prices are just too much. We're tired of policies that give billions to Big Oil, instead of supporting alternatives that would be better for the planet and our pocketbooks.

Our elected representatives hear every day on Capitol Hill from the oil companies, so the Senate needs to hear even louder from us not to cave and weaken the bill. We're hoping to get 750,000 signatures to deliver to Congress before the next vote. We're at 500,000 now. Can you sign our petition asking Congress to stand on the side of the American people?

Donna G., a MoveOn member from Indiana, couldn't have said it better:

Stop the insanity! We need the government's help to curb the huge profits going into the pockets of the oil barons while the rest of the nation is struggling just to make ends meet.

Thanks for all you do,
