National Grange has urged President George W. Bush to push the Congress to adopt
balanced national energy legislation that includes both increased production of
ethanol from our nation's farms as well as the development of the petroleum resources
from the Coastal Plain region of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) during
this session of Congress. Rural
America faces a complex energy crisis. Price instability for energy, due to increased
dependence on imported energy, threatens the economic health of U.S. farms. Increased
use of ethanol, which is derived from agricultural resources, will help economic
growth in rural areas. Opening restricted public lands in rural areas to energy
resource development in an environmentally sound manner will also vitalize the
rural economy. Action
Plan --- Please contact your Members of the House and Senate with easy-to-use
contact tools and urge them to pass Comprehensive Energy Legislation right now!
