URGENT: Take Action to Stop Nuclear Loan Guarantees for Vogtle 
Dear friends,

As 2013 draws to a close we invite you to add your voice to thousands opposing taxpayer-funded loans to build two risky reactors in Georgia.

These controversial low-to-no-interest loans from the U.S. treasury have been delayed repeatedly over the past four years since $8.3 BILLION hard-earned tax dollars were first promised to rich privately owned Southern Company to build two risky, UNNEEDED reactors at Vogtle near Augusta on the Savannah River.

Tomorrow is the latest deadline for the nuclear loan guarantees and we aim to add pressure to stopping it! Our special, grassroots action specially targets President Obama, Secretary of Energy Moniz, Department of Energy loan officers and key congressmen as well as electric company partners in Georgia who are most dependent upon the tax-funded nuclear loan subsidy.

TAKE ACTION! http://www.nonukesyall.org/Action_Obama.html

You have probably sent letters and signed petitions before in this long crusade to stop nuclear loan guarantees, but PLEASE sign this letter, too, which focuses your message to key folks who can help put a stop this unnecessary waste of taxpayer money.

The action e-mail is editable and includes the latest info from here in Vogtle Country. Nuclear Watch South has analyzed 10 years of Georgia Power’s annual reports and proved that electricity sales in Georgia and the surrounding market are absolutely flat. A whopping 46% of Georgia Power’s existing electric generating capacity is not even being used. VOGTLE IS NOT NEEDED.

Wind and solar power are setting rapid growth records even as prices drop faster than anyone ever dared to hope. But wind and solar development are being eclipsed in Georgia by publicly funded commitment to out-moded nuclear fission. Stopping the loan guarantees is key to helping turn Georgia, and U.S., energy policy towards a cleaner, brighter future.

Add your voice! http://www.nonukesyall.org/Action_Obama.html

Thanks and no nukes y’all!
Glenn
