Tomorrow, MoveOn members are delivering our “No More Oil” petition to local Senate offices all across the country.

According to our records, you haven’t signed yet—and to send a clear message to senators as they head back to Washington next week, we need 50,000 more signers today.

This is a crucial time, because the Senate is deciding right now what to include in the bill to respond to the BP oil disaster, and according to news reports, they could vote on the bill within the next two weeks.¹

If enough people sign, this petition will be yet another reminder to Congress that Americans want to get off oil for good. So please sign the petition below and make sure to get your name included before we deliver it tomorrow. Just click this link to add your name:

The petition says: “It’s time for a bold plan to get America off of oil. Please learn from the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico and take action to end the U.S. addiction to oil.”

Also, since this is the final deadline for this important petition, can you also forward this to a few friends and post it on Facebook and Twitter?

Clean energy champions are pushing to make sure the bill responding to the BP disaster includes steps to really get us off oil—like big increases in public transportation and energy efficiency, and cutting taxpayer handouts to Big Oil.

But senators in bed with Big Oil are pushing for giveaways to oil, like Clean Air Act rollbacks, or even, if you can believe it, new offshore drilling.

Momentum to get off oil has increased after President Obama put this goal front-and-center with his address from the Oval Office and the massive outpourings of support at the Oil Spill Vigils and Hands Across The Sand events that MoveOn members helped organize.

But we need to keep pushing, and these petition deliveries can add to that momentum—if enough people sign. Click below to add your name, and then forward this email or share it on Facebook and Twitter to keep it going. Here’s the link to sign:

Thanks for all you do.
