Urge U.S. Rep. Spratt to Block Unlimited Federal Loan Guarantees in Final Energy Bill

Nov. 23, 2007

Please call U.S. Congressman John Spratt's (Democrat-South Carolina's 5th District) office at (202) 225-5501 as soon as possible.

Tell him that the fiscally conservative thing to do is to stop the $50 billion in taxpayer-backed loan guarantees that the nuclear power industry is seeking for new reactor construction.

Urge Rep. Spratt to defend Congressional oversight on annual appropriations for such loan guarantees, a taxpayer safeguard that the nuclear industry is trying to do away with.

Urge him, as U.S. House Budget Committee Chairman, to speak with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to make sure this budget buster is excluded from the final energy bill. 

The final energy bill is behing hammered out behind closed doors right now, and will likely go to the House floor for a final vote on Dec. 4th or 5th. Please spread the word to get your friends to make calls this week too. Read below for more background information. If you have questions, please contact me.

Sincerely,
