First Action - Pruitt Cain’t Duitt

The Senate has closed debate on Steve Pruitt’s confirmation as director of the EPA, and the final vote is supposed to take place on Friday (today).

Pruitt was today ordered by a judge to hand over hundreds of emails requested by the Center for Media and Democracy. These emails are part of a correspondence between Pruitt and Koch Industries, as well as other large industries represented by him. These emails may or may not prove to be incriminating, but we should ask our senators to either vote to oppose Pruitt’s nomination or else to postpone the vote until the emails are forthcoming.

Sen. Collins (R-ME) and Sen. Angus King (I-ME) have both said they will vote against Pruitt’s confirmation, citing his history of outspoken opposition to the mission of the agency, but the likely final vote tally isn’t known at this time.

Action:  Call and/or fax your senators to ask them:

  1. to oppose the nomination of Steve Pruitt; or
  2. to postpone the vote until the emails have been produced; and
  3. see below.

Second Action - the Russians are Coming

Call or fax your congressman and/or senators and demand:
  1. an investigation into the ties between Trump’s campaign and Russia;
  2. release of all records pertaining to conversations between Michael Flynn and the Russian ambassador.

Links to House and Senate contact information and free fax site are on the “Speak Out” page of this website.
