PLEASE READ AND ACT!
Dear Friends,
As you know, in about a week a company owned by the United Arab Emirates is poised to take control of six ports in the United States. These ports were previously held by a British Firm that the company in the UAE acquired, thereby also acquiring control of these ports. This situation is scary, mainly because in a Post- 9/11 Society where border security is at a premium foreign investors have been allowed to control these entry ways. Now, President Bush’s response to the Bi-Partisan outrage this move has sparked is to threaten to Veto any legislation passed designed to block this deal from going through. Furthermore, the White House has declined to reveal the details of this deal.
It is imperative that our Senators know to stay strong and that their constituents are behind them in not wanting our border security handed over to foreign interests. Please, contact your local Senators and let them know how you feel. Need their contact info? Follow this link: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
Also, let the White House know how you feel. Maybe if Bush realizes that his constituents are against this move he will relent: http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
Please, we only have a week to make an impact. Let’s make our voices heard. To that effect, and I am not one to send out mass e-mails, E-MAIL this to everyone you know. Feel free to cut and paste this message if you like. Remember, strength in numbers folks!
