TAKE ACTION SHOW SOME LOVE AND SIGN THE PETITION to compel EPA and the White House to act by Valentine's Day 2012 on the Coal Ash Rule! CALL SEN MCCASKILL AND BLUNT when they return to D.C. in January to say "let the EPA do its job" on the recently passed mercury and toxics rules…and on the coal ash rule that has been delayed with heavy industry lobbying and inaction by the administration and EPA.
