Call-in to make sure your member of Congress knows there is strong opposition to military action against Iran in his or her district.

CALL NOW, before any irreversible steps are taken, is the time for us to speak out against any U.S./Israeli military attack on Iran. Call the Capitol Hill switchboard at 202-224-3121 or click here to look up the direct numbers for your representative's DC and local offices.

Pressure on Congress is critical right now as it considers H.Con.Res. 362. 102 House Democrats and 117 Republicans have cosponsored a resolution against Iran that demands President Bush "initiate an international effort" to impose a land, sea, and air blockade on Iran to prevent it from importing gasoline and to inspect all cargo entering or leaving Iran. Imposing such a blockade without UN authority could be widely construed as an act of war.

PLANT VOGTLE OPPOSITION!

COMMENTS STILL BEING ACCEPTED
The first step Georgia utilities are taking to try to get federal approval to build new nuclear reactors along the Savannah River is to apply for an “early site permit.”  If the permit is issued, concerns such as water, land, public health, and safety cannot be brought up again even if we learn new information.  If approved, this permit essentially allows the Southern Company and its utility partners in Georgia to use the permit at any time for up to 20 years in any future applications with the NRC.  Together, Atlanta WAND, Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League, Center for a Sustainable Coast, Savannah Riverkeeper, and Southern Alliance for Clean Energy legally challenged the permit.
