PETITION DELIVERY: Speak up for clean air and water monitoring

On Tuesday, Aug 6 at 5:30 we need as many people as possible to turn out to the St. Louis County Council meeting in Clayton. We have over 1,200 petitions to deliver, and we are looking for people to speak (short 3 min. testimony of your concerns). Elected officials can't lead an empty room. If we do not fill the room, money will fill the vacuum. St. Louis County Executive, Charlie Dooley for St. Louis County, has already received $200,000.00 from Rex Sinquefield this month and $17,000 from Ameren. We are not 100% sure, but we would bet Rex and Ameren are NOT looking for any more regulation!http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/protect-our-air-and-water
