[MoJo]

Please take the time to go to the following website and sign a petition requesting that the US Congress investigate the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The NRC is racing forward to build as many as 50 new nuclear power plants without adequate consideration of important safety issues they have known about for at least 20 years relating to counterfeit/substandard in at least 70 existing US power plants. Once again the American people are not being told the truth by the current administration about a very important issue after secret meetings Cheney had with energy representatives led to the planned expansion and decreased safety standards. These relaxed standards will permit use of lower quality parts in new and existing plants to save the nuclear industry money. Available information indicates that at least two of the proposed new plants are being planned for central Florida. Please forward this e-mail to as many people as possible and ask that they also sign the petition. We
 are alerting media and elected officials about this issue and signatures are very important. 


The Petition was recently revised to be sent to the new Congressional leadership and just placed on the website that is listed below so we need as many signatures as possible:

Instructions on how to sign the petition and other information are also available on other links accessible from the above site. 

Thank you for your concern and patriotism.

"Switching from coal to nukes," said Dan Becker, director of the Sierra Club's global warming program, "is like giving up smoking and taking up crack." 
   
  "Americans cannot escape a certain responsibility for what is done in our name around the world. In a democracy, even one as corrupted as ours, ultimate authority rests with the people. We empower the government with our votes, finance it with our taxes, bolster it with our silent acquiescence. If we are passive in the face of America's official actions overseas, we in effect endorse them." - Mark Hertzgaard
