This is a national issue and it’s time we recognized how many states are going to be impacted. I’ll be watching and listening for more calls to action.

I encourage anyone who is interested in learning more about the Heavy Haul/megaloads issue to check out a brand new website: AllAgainstTheHaul.org.

While you’re there, please sign our petition to keep these monster tar sands loads out of the Northwest.

And be sure to spread the word!

When you’re able to break an addiction being propped by gov’t bailouts, let us know. We’re down with ya.

This demand will overwhelm your efforts. We need a system change. We need to end the private auto and sprawl, move back to the city, educate all children, and stop believing in growth. As long as there is sprawl and growth, there will be energy waste, and suppliers will have too much political power. Poor people will see your actions as an upper-class movement and be easily turned on you by demagogues.
