As promised, this week more than two hundred activists flood Washington to lobby Congress for legislation to curb mountaintop removal mining.  I met a number of the people in town for the Alliance for Appalachia's Week in Washington to End Mountaintop Removal  last night, and I can tell you that they are pumped. 

You can help amplify the efforts of these very pumped-up people right from your computer.  Just click here to join NRDC and our allies in a March 9 day of action in support of the Clean Water Protection Act.  With your help we'll get boatloads of emails and calls in to Congress even as Appalachian activists meet with congressional offices in person. 

For more information about NRDC's work to end mountaintop removal mining and all the latest updates, you can always check out www.nomoremountaintopremoval.org.
