While discussing the #dontgo movement with my Representative’s  (Rep. Kay Granger, R-TX 12th District) I was brought up to-date on just a few bills pending before the House that Commissar Nancy is preventing from being acted upon.

H.R. 3089, No More Excuses Energy Act of 2007 Reduces the price of gasoline by opening new American oil refineries; investing in diverse energy sources such as wind, nuclear, and clean coal-to-liquid technology; and making available more homegrown energy through environmentally sensitive exploration of the Arctic Energy Slope and America’s Deep-Sea Energy Reserves.

H.R. 2279, Expand American Refining Capacity at Closed Military Bases Reduces the price of gasoline by streamlining the refinery application process and by requiring the President to open at least three closed military installations for the purpose of siting new and reliable American refineries.

H.R. 5656, To Repeal the Ban on Acquiring Alternative Fuels Reduces the price of gasoline by allowing the federal government to procure advanced alternative fuels derived from diverse sources like oil shale, tar sands and coal-to-liquid technology.

H.R. 2493, Fuel Mandate Reduction Act of 2007 Reduces the price of gasoline by removing fuel blend requirements and onerous government mandates if they contribute to unaffordable gas prices.

H.R. 6368, Increase Mileage Reimbursement Rates for Americans Act Increases the mileage reimbursement rate Americans could claim for business travel and charitable travel.

H.R. 6566, Comprehensive American Energy Act To bring down energy prices by increasing safe, domestic production, encouraging the development of alternative and renewable energy, and promoting conservation.

Even though the battle cry is "Drill Now" this movement is about the rights of the people to be represented. The American Energy Bill

 

This is an example of what Mistress Nancy will allow! More money to China and more danger for the children of tomorrow.

Speak Your Mind


This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)

This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.

Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
