OVEC Action Alert - July 15, 2002 |
 |
Report this morning from the special session of the Legislature: Legislators are overwhelmingly hearing from you that you don’t want an increase on the weight limits for coal trucks and that you want the CURRENT weight limits enforced! Please keep up the pressure. Get your friends and neighbors to call too! Hooray for you!
Ken Hechler's radio and TV ads are having a huge impact. The We The People office is swamped with calls! Hooray for Ken—truly a people’s hero, and going like gangbusters at 88-years-young!
Message: Don't raise the weight limit on overweight coal trucks and enforce the current weight limits.
Call: You can leave a message for Gov. Wise at 1-888-438-2731, or at 304-558-2000.
You can leave a message for your Senators and Delegates at 1-877-565-3347. Better yet, you can find the numbers for direct lines to their Capitol offices:

Yesterday's Prayer Vigil was great, with coalfield residents, union representatives, enviros, some politicians and some candidates turning out for a show of people power!
