Queen Nancy - Running on Empty with More Broken Promises

Flashback to 2006 - Democrat demagogues promised Americans the moon in order to regain political power. They even swore to rein in rocketing gas prices. Well, how's that working for you, America? At least the National Republican Congressional Committee is providing an opportunity to send Queen Nancy and Dingy Harry a real plan that will actually reduce our energy dependence on foreign oil (see NRCC petition letter below). Lead, follow or get out of the way, Dems.

Gas Prices: When is enough, enough?

"The price of gas continues to climb each day. Folks like you in towns across America have experienced increases of as much as 11% in the last month alone. This comes after weProtest Graphic were promised by Nancy Pelosi two years ago that the Democrats had a "common sense" plan to bring down the gas prices.

It's been two years since the Democrats took control of Congress, and they've ignored practical solutions to reduce energy costs and reduce America's dependence on foreign oil. Republicans are proposing 21st century solutions to our energy crisis but we need your help. We invite you to sign this petition and tell Congress just how much this energy crisis has hurt your wallet. No one can deny the increased strain put on the American middle class families.

Sign the petition today and tell Congress you want them to:

  • Suspend the Federal 18.4-cents-per-gallon gasoline tax for the high-demand summer months.
  • Suspend all earmarks for one year and use the money to fund highways, bridges and other important infrastructure around the country.
  • Increase American oil production, and cut our reliance on foreign imports from unstable nations.
  • Allow U.S. refineries to expand and create more energy.

It is critical that we tell Congress that America needs new, innovative solutions to confront this crisis.

Please sign this petition, it's the only way we can send our message to Congress that enough is enough!"
