Democrats Won't Allow Votes to Help Lower Gas Prices

Rep. Tom Cole, Chair National Republican Congressional Committee: Please consider the latest outrageous action by Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat leadership in Congress. When Americans are canceling vacations because gasoline is over $4.00 per gallon, Democrats plan to adjourn work for a month-long vacation the first of August WITHOUT holding a vote to drill for American oil. This is inexcusable.

I know you’ll agree with me that there should be no recess without voting on legislation that can help lower gas prices. No wonder the new Gallup Poll shows Congress’s approval rating has slipped to an all-time low of 14%. It’s not hard to figure out why. The Democrat Majority in Congress is putting their extremist ideology ahead of common-sense solutions to bring down the price of gas and reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources in unstable regimes.

If you are as outraged as I am, I need you to do 2 things:

Send a strong message to Pelosi and the Democrat majority to vote now. Sign our online petition demanding Congress take immediate action to lower gas prices before taking their vacation.

Help us spread the word by forwarding this message on to their friends!

I hope you join our efforts to force the Democrat leadership to vote and lower gas prices today! Nancy Pelosi plans to begin her month long vacation in two short weeks so please make sure to sign the petition today!
