Nov 30, 2008 -- Fight the Right-Wing Wackos Links of the Day.

** Union of Concerned Scientists **

We need to build a clean energy future that will break our dependence on oil, create millions of new jobs, and cut global warming pollution. President-elect Barack Obama has pledged to make clean energy one of his top priorities. But we know from experience that real change doesn’t just happen and we cannot underestimate the power of the oil and coal industries and the legislators who support them.

Please urge the new president to propose a plan in the first 100 days of his administration that will Repower, Refuel, and Rebuild America. UCS will also deliver this petition to your members of Congress.

** National Campaign for Fair Elections **

The 2008 election brought more voters to the polls than ever before. Unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of eligible Americans were prevented from casting a ballot because of problems with the registration system. Election administration sometimes buckled under the strain of increased registration activities.

Our current voter registration system is to blame for this. Rules that vary wildly by state and limited resources make it difficult, confusing, and sometimes impossible for eligible voters to register and stay registered to vote.

Tell Congress and President-elect Obama we need automatic, permanent registration NOW, to ensure that every eligible American voter is able to cast a meaningful ballot.
