DFA Member -

We have 24 hours to stop the U.S. Senate from giving the green light to a project that would have a catastrophic impact on our climate.

You may have heard about the proposed Keystone XL Pipeline that would ship dirty tar sand oil from Canada to the Gulf right through America's agricultural heartland. Not only would this disastrous project jeopardize our water and land with the threat of leaks and spills -- it would also make our efforts to stabilize climate change virtually impossible.

Last month President Obama rejected construction of the pipeline, but many Senators are rushing to resurrect it in order to protect some of their biggest donors -- Big Oil.

To stop them, we need a remarkable response. Democracy for America has joined with dozens of other organizations to collect and deliver 500,000 messages before tomorrow's vote.

Add your name now.

The petition says: "Senators: Block any efforts to revive the dangerous Keystone XL tar sands pipeline."

There is no way to build Keystone XL that does not accelerate production of the tar sands and contribute disastrous amounts of carbon to climate change. Only Big Oil would benefit from pipeline -- every single claim about the positive economic impact has been proven false by independent review.

For the next 24 hours, it's all hands on deck.

Tomorrow we will deliver boxes upon boxes of signatures to the U.S. Senate. It will be a unified show of our power -- our voices against the money of Big Oil.

We don't have a second to lose. Can you sign the petition to the Senate right away and then share it with your friends?

Thanks for everything you've done already -- and everything you will do to make the next 24 hours a really big deal.

Let's do this.
