LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Support clean energy job plan

Published 8:46 am Wednesday, June 3, 2009

To the editor:

Clean energy can mean more jobs.

In an environment of job losses and a shrinking economy, energy can provide jobs and profits. Instead of handouts to Big Oil, small businesses need federal encouragement. Millions of jobs and great savings on energy bills can be the outcome of an ambitious commitment to clean energy by the federal government.

I hope Congressman Rick Larsen will support President Obama’s clean energy jobs plan. He can be reached at 1-800-562-1385.
