Remember how great it was last year in June when the Senate was hearing from so many people opposed to amnesty that they had to stop working on the Bush-Kennedy-McCain amnesty bill. Now, another perfect storm is brewing over high gas prices.

In my recent JBS News Feed, "Congress Should Unlock Our Energy Resources," I point out how recent polls show American public opinion swinging in favor of lowering gas prices by unlocking our energy resources. The article includes some specific steps Congress should take along these lines and provides a link to a pre-written, editable email for contacting your representative and senators and telling them "Start Lowering Our Gas Prices by Unlocking Our Resources."

The scene is perfect. Congress reconvenes right after Labor Day and plans to adjourn again in late September to provide some time for campaigning before the November elections. Since most representatives and many senators are trying to get re-elected, they will be particularly eager to please their constituents. Start sending those emails and making those phone calls now, and keep the pressure on through September to get some action on lowering gas prices.

Network to amplify our efforts.

Let's see if we can rock Congress back on its heels once again!
